Levinas
What it takes to involve the third in a two player game; two out of necessity and three for fun. Two lying either side of the one perceived wall. Where is the wall, on common ground? Does the same repulse?
Yet the face emerges in flight yet again, as the line it cannot be grasped in its entirety because its entirety is never present, it is always on the way to - becoming. Consciousness is movement.
Make out where the face could stand contortion and bereavement. A new look in both directions. Refrain from mirror strain.
The splintering of self, the imperceptible fissures, make anything like constructing an ethical relation a thankless task.
