"You, darkness, of whom I am born- I love you more than the flame that limits the world to the circle it illumines and excludes all the rest. But the dark embraces everything: shapes and shadows, creatures and me, people, nations-just as they are. It lets me imagine a great presence stirring beside me. I believe in the night." --Rainer Maria Rilke "But when I lean over the chasm of myself- it seems my God is dark and like a web a hundred roots silently drinking This is the ferment I grow out of More I don't know, because my branches rest in deep silence, stirred only by the wind" --Rainer Maria Rilke "I like walking in the cemetery, it's so beautiful there in the fall. The changing leaves fall from the trees, like they do from us all. I appreciate the company of the dead, I went and read the page where Don Juan said: 'keep death upon your shoulder, it will remind you to love' " --Rebecca Riots from the song "Cemetery" “And still, after all this time, the Sun has never said to the Earth, "You owe me." Look what happens with love like that. It lights up the sky.” ~Rumi "Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one" -Albert Einstein "We are all in the gutter but some of us are looking at the stars"--Oscar Wilde
