approximate

As long as we are approximating ourselves to something, trying to be something, there must be contradiction; therefore there must be this cleavage between the false and the true.
Tant que nous voulons ressembler à quelque chose, essayant d'« être » quelque chose, il y a obligatoirement contradiction, donc scission entre le faux et le vrai.
