Wei Wu Wei Lost in Dimensions

This is a snippet from The Cube-root of Zero where the author Wei Wu Wei is explaining why nothing comes of exploration..

"[On volume A to B and so on] ...But all are measurements from A, and A is the centre from which all measurements are made. And what is A? A is the measurer, A is what measures, A is the centre of the universe, A is what we suppose ourselves to be, whoever we are and wherever we are. And since it is A who is now measuring, A is trying to measure itself. That is why there is nothing to be found."
