“Only those who will risk going too far

can possibly find out how far one can go.”

(T.S. Eliot)

"Wounded river push along

Searching for that desert song
And Mozart's requiem will play
On tiny speakers made of clay..."

According to the second law of thermodynamics,

the entropy of any isolated system,

such as the entire universe,

never decreases.

If the entropy of the universe

has a maximum upper bound

then when this bound is reached

the universe has no thermodynamic free energy

to sustain motion or life,

that is,

the heat death is reached.

(art by Daniele Marton)

"A day spent without the sight or sound of beauty,

the contemplation of mystery,

or the search of truth or perfection

is a poverty-stricken day;

and a succession of such days

is fatal to human life."

(Lewis Mumford)

"To every thing there is a season,

and a time to every purpose
under the heaven:
   
A time to be born,
and a time to die;
A time to kill,
and a time to heal;
a time to break down,
and a time to build up..."

"Nothing fixes a thing

so intensely in the memory

as the wish to forget it." 

(Michel de Montaigne)

"So dull and dark are the November days.

The lazy mist high up the evening curled,

And now the morn quite hides 

in smoke and haze..."

(John Clare, November)

"One must confront death

to fully experience life."

(art by Erlend Mørk)

Don't trust too much,

don't love too much,

don't care too much.

Because that 'too much'

will hurt you so much.

(art by Seth Siro Anton)

"Collective fury/perpetual fate

Extreme barbary/ atricious crimes

Animosity/uncontrolled rage

Total butchery/atrocious crimes"

(art by Suzzan Blac)

"We're the reflection

Of death on earth

We're the expression

Of hate and rebirth"
