“The notion of ambiguity must not be confused with that of absurdity. To declare that existence is absurd is to deny that it can ever be given a meaning; to say that it is ambiguous is to assert that its meaning is never fixed, that it must be constantly won. Absurdity challenges every ethics; but also the finished rationalization of the real would leave no room for ethics; it is because man’s condition is ambiguous that he seeks, through failure and outrageousness, to save his existence.”
~ Simone de Beauvoir, 1948, The Ethics Of Ambiguity, p. 129

So, is absurdity a bad thing then? I’d prefer to celebrate it than vilify it…. [Great costumes! I want one!]
It’s not a bad thing. It’s not a good thing. It’s a thing. It is not a pipe.
