“The Holy Spirit thus proceeds, absolutely speaking: it leaves stabilities forever, including those of the balanced movement of circular history, to risk itself in the unstable motivity of deviations from equilibrium. That means that it never stops being exposed. It evolves and travels. Whence its eccentration, outside the stabilities of the first two persons; whence knowledge, whence time. Whence learning.”
– The Troubadour of Knowledge (1997), Michel Serres
