all errors of all people are volitional

that doesn't make you a genius

Finnegans Wake was a mistake.

No. Most masterpieces are full of mistakes because they are by authors who struggle against the impossible topics.
'Perfect' books are middle brow as fuck.

No. Stephen was just talking out of his ass to justify his borderline-neetdom and make himself feel better because he wasn't invited to the super special Irish artist's club.

Yes, in the sense that he is willing to make mistakes and make them into something good, not that he makes mistakes "on purpose" and makes therefore no mistakes to begin with.

so.... he /does/ make mistakes. is what you're saying.

wow that is a nice rare Joyce you've got there mhmmm

>tfw you will never pat James Joyce on the back, feel his neck, help him arrange his perfect hair and wonder if you will become gay if you kiss him
>tfw you will never take his glasses away and playfully laugh at him for being so helpless
>tfw he will never tell you an obscure joke that you don't get but still laugh because you want to make him happy
