Quote by Raoul Vaneigem

The eruption of lived pleasure is such that in losing myself I find myself; forgetting that I exist, I realize myself.

The eruption of lived pleasure is such that in losing myself

Summary

This quote suggests that when fully engaged in moments of pleasure and enjoyment, one can temporarily disconnect from the self and experience a profound sense of fulfillment. By losing oneself in such experiences, the individual paradoxically discovers a deeper understanding of their own identity. It implies that in moments of pure enjoyment, self-consciousness and self-awareness fade away, allowing for a true realization of one's inner self.

Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of earthAnd danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirthOf sun-split clouds--and done a hundred thingsYou have not dreamed of--wheeled and soared and swungHigh in the sunlit silence, Hov'ring there,I've chased the shouting wind along, and flungMy eager craft through footless halls of air.Up, up the long, delirious, burning blueI've topped the windswept heights with easy graceWhere never lark, or even eagle flewAnd, while with silent, lifting mind I've trodThe high untrespassed sanctity of space,Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.
