Yes, it's about human nature.

Once we were not one but an even number. The resulting self indulgence, one in the other, made mankind haughty. This of course getting on the main mans nerves, he split mankind into two halves. Love and sympathy thus being a direct result of this one act, all love is longing to become one with the one one loves. I am tired of this longing [no]. Longing is tossing a coin [no]. Love is tossing longing [no].

Tossing a coin is a mechanical process, as is getting up in the morning, as is counting.
