Thinking has to have a purpose. The fact that we do it at all, the fact that we are always thinking, the fact that thinking is always troubled-these self-evident facts of thinking strongly suggest that meaning for human beings is not prescribed. For ordinary animals, still in the state of nature, meaning is inscribed and hence prescribed. It is prior to action, and hence action does not require mind. It can be done, as we say, instinctively. But this is not the case for the human animal. It is in this context of ascribing to man a divine capacity to reason that Plato's supposed doctrine of ideas must be set.

They claim to be witnesses to the follies of their times.
