facts

I remember being illuminated at one time by the idea that we are not only liberated by an idea, but that the very act of verbalizing the idea is the act of building a series of walls, within which we then must live.

Religion of course is a prime example of that. Trying to define God, Heaven, Love, Salvation, etc. allows us to contemplate the infinite, but those same definitions creates a finite limit to the ideas.
