Marginal, Local and Time-Bound

“What are the questions that fascinate you? What do you want to know?” Personal questions, personal answers.

The questions that often haunt me and that I pursue with some passion are marginal, local and time-bound. They are like a small beam of light traveling along a time path, illuminating here and there a small and imponderable detail. And it is undoubtedly because my passions are local that they are time-bound. I mean that, since they seem to attach themselves to details, they necessarily change with time. Furthermore, I am convinced that, because they are local and time-bound, it is quite delusional to believe there are satisfactorily precise answers to them; answers, in other words, that do away with the luxury of approximation, conjecture or speculation.
