Yevgeny Zamyatin — We [764]

There is, after all, a logic of its own (today’s logic) in this condition: a point contains more unknowns than anything else; it need but stir, move, and it may turn into thousands of curves, thousands of bodies. — Yevgeny Zamyatin, We, 764

Note

Mathematical existentialism: reframing the geometric ‘point’ as a locus of infinite terror and potential change.
