It is a fine balance -- sufficient rest and recollection to exist, and the force of existence. To the transcendental mind, this is identical with the balance between Romanticism and Enlightenment knowledge.
(At which point, the non-transcendental mind points out that it might just be that the inner dichotomy is what we use to understand the mind-independent phenomena of time. To which the transcendental mind replies that the world is more than our eyes, and yet we actually know the world through our eyes. And by this point, the non-transcendental mind has lost interest in the question and surfs the web a bit.)
