self-correcting maladjustment

QUOTE from Democracy by Joan Didion, 1984

...as the granddaughter of a geologist I learned early to anticipate the absolute mutability of hills and waterfalls and even islands... A hill is a transitional accommodation to stress, and ego may be a similar accommodation. A waterfall is a self-correcting maladjustment of stream to structure, and so, for all I know, is technique.
