the limits of beauty
Are there limits to beauty? No. Such trick questions go straight to the heart of any discussion about the differences between objective reality and human perception. And to be clear, towers of ilium has no doubts about objectivity, despite the frequent difficulties the human mind has when it comes to grasping it. Objective conditions include the following: Earth's rotation, the boiling point of water, starvation, traffic jams, and death. Not a comprehensive list, but any compendium of truth will be overcome by a compendium of fantasy. Deciding what proportion to spend our lifetime considering is a personal affair.
