I can only recognize a sin when I am no longer committing it. Therefore I cannot comprehend life so long as I am living it, and time is the mystery because I have yet to overcome it. Only death can teach me the meaning of life. I stand in time and not above it, I still posit time, still long for non–being, still desire material life; and because I remain in this sin, I am not capable of comprehending it. What I know, I already stand outside of.
— Otto Weininger (1880–1903), Taschenbuch
