“Wake up from your slumber, a new phase in your life is about to begin!” says a rabbit to the hedgehog man: “The encounter with a woman is going to open your soul… You can’t spend all of your time enveloped in the fleeting shadow of this shrub! Look at you, you’re all crouched down like a mad dog… you look, but you don’t see. In order to see, you think it’s necessary to stop, and so seeing becomes a burden. The burden of seeing becomes for you the burden of having to look, but when you stop to think, then I’m sure in that moment you do see.”
