[0309] For if I were necver to see the two of them both together, then it
would follow, or should follow, that between their respective
appearances the interval does not vary.[0310] No, I am wrong.[0311] For
the interval may [⁁] well vary considerably, and it seems to me it does,
without ever being abolished.
[0312] Nevertheless I am inclibned to
think, because of this erratic irregular interval, that my two visitors
will meet some day[⁁] may some day meet before my eyes, collide and perhaps knock each other down.
[0313] I have said that here all things recur sooner or later, no, I

them.[0326] In order to speak.
[0327] One starts to speak as if it were
possible to stop at will.[0328] It is better so.[0329] The search for the
means to put an end to things, an end to speech, is what enables
