At the time this article was written I had believed. for some time that
columnists in the Times and other journalists had been making. references to
my situation. Nothing unusual about. this you may think, plenty of people
have the same sort of ideas. and obviously the papers aren't writing about
them, so why should my beliefs not be as false as those. of others?
What makes this. article so extraordinary is that three or four days
immediately preceding its publication, I had a. meeting with a friend,
during the course. of which we discussed the media persecution, and in
particular that by Times columnists. It. seemed to me, reading the article
by Levin in Saturday’s. paper, that he was describing in some detail his
"artist’s impression". of that meeting. Most telling are the final
sentences, when he writes, "The madman bursts into tears, and. swears it is
all true. And it is." Although I did not "burst into tears" (he. seems to be
using a bit of poetic licence and exaggerating) I did try hard. to convince
my. friend that it was all true; and I am able to concur with Mr Levin,
because, of. course, it is.
At the beginning. of the piece Levin reveals a fear of being attacked by the
"irrational" subject of his story, saying "I have. no reason to believe that
he is violent, but he should certainly be approached. with caution". This
goes back to the. xenophobic propaganda of "defence" against a "threat"
which was seen at the very beginning of the harassment. The impression of. a
"madman running loose" who needs to be. controlled through an agency which
assigns to. itself the mantle of the "police" is also one which had been
expressed. elsewhere.
In the. final paragraph of this extract, his reference to Everyman’s Library
as having "died a lingering. and shameful death a decade or so ago" shows
clearly. what sort of conclusion they wish to their campaign. They want a
permanent solution, and as they are prevented from achieving that. solution
directly,. they waste significant resources on methods which have been
repeatedly shown to be. ineffective for such a purpose.

of nature, which previously seemed to you impossible, make
you know that there may be others of which you are still ignorant. Do not
draw this conclusion from your experiment, that there remains nothing for
you to know; but rather that there remains an infinity for you to know.
232. Infinite movement, the point which fills everything, the moment of
rest; infinite without quantity, indivisible and infinite.
233. Infinite--nothing.--Our soul is cast into a body, where it finds
number, dimension. Thereupon it reasons, and calls this nature necessity,
and can believe nothing else.
Unity joined to infinity adds nothing to it, no more than one foot to an
infinite measure. The finite is annihilated in the presence of the infinite,
and becomes a pure nothing. So our spirit before God, so our justice before
divine justice. There is not so great a disproportion between our justice
and that of God as between unity and infinity.
The justice of God must be vast like His compassion. Now justice to the
outcast is less vast and ought less to offend our feelings than mercy
towards the elect.
We know that there is an infinite, and are ignorant of its nature. As we
know it to be false that numbers are finite, it is therefore true that there
is an infinity in number. But we do not know what it is. It is false that it
is even, it is false that it is odd; for the addition of a unit can make no
change in its nature. Yet it is a number, and every number is odd or even
