What do you want? Classically the question arises in developmental stages where love and work are concerned. "Plastics" was the iconic quote from The Graduate. Plastic is a word for a substance as well as emotion or personality. Everyone graduates though not every graduate has the good fortune of being seduced by Anne Bancroft. In another way of thinking the end of study itself is biological. Esse est percipi. You only stop when you can no longer be perceived. Thus eschatologically one can never know until one takes a last breath. Desire is the arbiter until the story is over. Die Welt aus Wille und Vorstellung is Schopenhauer's great tome. Steven Greenblatt's Will in the World, may refer to both the Shakespearian and Shavian "life force."
