Seek,
above all, for a game worth playing. Such is the advice of the oracle
to modern man. Having found the game, play it with intensity -- play as
if your life and sanity depended on it. (They do depend on it). Follow
the example of the French existentialists and flourish a banner bearing
the word "engagement." Though nothing means anything and all roads are
marked "NO EXIT," yet move as if your movements had some purpose. If
life does not seem to offer a game worth playing, then invent one.
For it must be clear, even to the most clouded intelligence, that any game is better than no game...
