Eating the menu

Posted on Fri, 2009-10-02 01:32, by mariuss

Man is so embroiled in his abstractions that he represents the physical world in the same way as the menu represents dinner. He very easily confuses the symbols for what they represent and so has a tendency to eat the menu instead of dinner.

— Alan Watts
