The title is taken from the lines of a poem by Fernando Pessoa, entitled:
"It isn't enough to open the window"
To see the fields and the river
It isnโt enough to open the window.
To see the trees and the flowers
It isnโt enough not to be blind.
It is also necessary to have no philosophy.
With philosophy there are no trees, just ideas.
There is only each one of us, like a cave.
There is only a shut window, and the whole world outside,
And a dream of what could be seen if the window were opened,
Which is never what is seen when the window is opened.
