About This Quote

The safety-switch is a device that switches between on and off. Indeed, a safe is a whole world protected by this switch. Safety-switches are the things that keep us from experiencing danger. For example, a car’s safety-switch prevents a car from moving when the driver turns off the ignition.

In our everyday lives, safety-switches make us feel safe from all sorts of dangers. As we begin to think of ourselves as “safe,” we go about our daily lives with less concern for risks and dangers around us. If we can make ourselves feel safe by simply switching on/off, then we don’t have to worry about anything out there at all.
