“When a sword cuts into one’s soul,..accept the coldness of the sword.. ..By means of the stab,..become invulnerable.” - FRANZ KAFKA on how “the wound is healed only by the spear that smote you”, as Zizek says: “Hegel’s point is..not to regain what was lost but to accept..loss..as liberating. ..Wagner’s “the wound is healed only by the spear that smote you” means: the only way to undo the..turn of..events, is to return..to the moment of the wrong decision and to repeat the choice” (via franz–kafka)
