I think there's a way to solve the dilemma posed by Ecclesiastes: "he that increases knowledge increases sorrow." All you need to do is work not only on increasing knowledge, but also on moving out into domains where this new knowledge is applicable, preferably in a scalable manner. Actually, Ecclesiastes himself hints at this approach in 2:24 when he says: "There is nothing better for a man than...make his soul enjoy pleasure for his labour." So, when we talk about knowledge we should differentiate between different types of knowledge: one that relates to the discovery of new domains; one that enables you to select and move into at least one of those domains; and one that allows you to perform in this domain.

かけ声を井戸の底からこたへけり

calling down--
from deep in the well
an answer

крик в пустоту -
из глубин колодца
восходит ответ |

"а может
это она
совершенно другая
сходила в прохладные тени
меня примеряя
как платье
лишь чувствуя кожей
неровности швов
и причуды фигуры" |
