A person who thinks all the time has nothing to think about except thoughts so, he loses touch with reality and lives in a world of illusions by thoughts i mean specifically, chatter in the skull perpetual and compulsive repetition of words, of reckoning and calculating i'm not saying that thinking is bad like everything else, it's useful in moderation a good servant, but a bad master and all so-called civilized peoples have increasingly become crazy and self-destructive because through excessive thinking they have lost touch with reality that's to say we confuse signs with the real world
