“There it is, the sea, the most incomprehensible of non-human existences. And here is the woman, on the beach, the most incomprehensible of living beings. As the human being one day asked itself a question about itself, it became the most incomprehensible of living beings. She and the sea. Their mysteries can only meet if one surrenders to the other: the surrender of two unknowable worlds, made with the confidence with which two understandings give themselves up.”
Clarice Lispector, ‘Waters of the Sea’.
