Lol no wonder it was more of a comedy than a drama for Geoffrey, and why the business of becoming actually free is not a serious business at all. All this over ‘someone’ that does not exist in actuality.
I can see what Richard meant when he wrote in his journal :
If it were not for all the suffering; the wars, the murders, the tortures, the rapes, the sadness, the loneliness, the grief, the depressions, the suicides, and the such-like, it would be entertainingly amusing … for the self does not exist in actuality. All this monstrous behaviour is about something fictitious.
