Because sentences impose an order on our perceptions that does not exist in our perceptions.
The sentence cannot imitate experience. It codes it for the intellect in a way both false and necessary.
To understand is therefore to fail to understand. Understanding something other than what we are attempting to understanding. Translation into a language with no overlap in structure.
The sound of the heating system crossed onto the sound of cars charging up and down the highway so that you cannot tell which one generates any particular molecule of sound.
