“And those who were dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music.” -Friedrich Nietzsche

“Pleasure to me is to wonder-the unexplored, the unexpected, the thing that is hidden and the changeless thing that lurks behind superficial mutability.” -Howard Phillip Lovecraft

“Anyone who seriously intends to become a philosopher
must “once in his life” withdraw into himself and attempt,
within himself, to overthrow and build anew all the sciences
that, up to then, he has been accepting. Philosophy wisdom
(sagesse) is the philosophizer’s quite personal affair. It must
arise as His wisdom, as his self-acquired knowledge tending
toward universality, a knowledge for which he can answer from
the beginning, and at each step, by virtue of his own absolute
insights.” -Edmund Husserl

“We must leave intact within ourselves certain articles of faith and certain errors as long as they keep us alive. We must be without scruple regarding truth and error when it is a matter of life, so that we may subsequently employ life anew in the service of truth and individual conscience. This is our flux and reflux, the energy of our successive contraction and expansion.” -Friedrich Nietzsche

“As Above, so Below.
As Within, so Without
As the Universe, so the Soul”
-Hermes Trismegistus

“Nothing that is worth doing can be achieved in our lifetime; therefore we must be saved by hope. Nothing which is true or beautiful or good makes complete sense in any immediate context of history; therefore we must be saved by faith. Nothing we do, however virtuous, can be accomplished alone; therefore we must be saved by love. No virtuous act is quite as virtuous from the standpoint of our friend or foe as from our own standpoint. Therefore we must be saved by that final form of love, which is forgiveness.”
― Reinhold Niebuhr
