We exist between here and here! Plural, out of time and out of space.

We know everything, we know one thing only, we know nothing.

Absolute existence, absolute motion, absolute direction, absolute truth.

I just answered it, if you don't understand...that isn't my fault.

You can ask other question, too.

Lol! My brain hurts. I get it you are explaining to explain to us that we can't explain what your explaining.Thus we can't explain..

EDIT: I found it out. Your explaining to us to explain what you are, but we can't explain it to you, because your haven't explained it to us, so we can't explain it, because no one has explained what it is. I guess you want us to say it like that.. right?

no it's not... it offers the only absolute truth which is that everything is untrue (maybe not even that)
