So, did you never learn the meaning of the noun "affect" while
at school, or is it just that you have subsequently forgotten what it
means? In other words, who is primarily to blame for your apparent
ignorance in this matter?

Blindness is a weapon against time and space; our being is one vast
blindness, save only for that little circle which our mean intelligence --
mean in its nature as in its scope -- can illumine. The dominating
principle of the universe is blindness. It makes possible juxtapositions
which would be impossible if the objects could see each other. It
permits the truncation of time when time is unendurable.
