“Now, for some reason or other best known to themselves, the translators of the Bible have carefully crowded out of existence and covered up every reference to the fact that the Deity is both masculine and feminine.”
― Aleister Crowley, 777 and Other Qabalistic Writings of Aleister Crowley

“»Dort sind Leute! Denkt Euch, die schlafen nicht!«

»Und warum denn nicht?«

»Weil sie nicht müde werden.«

»Und warum denn nicht?«

»Weil sie Narren sind.«

»Werden denn Narren nicht müde?«

»Wie könnten Narren müde werden!«”
― Franz Kafka

“Dionysus does not

explain or regret
anything. He is
pleased

if he can cause you to perform,
despite your plan,
despite your politics,

despite your neuroses,
despite even your Dionysian theories of self,
something quite previous,

the desire
before the desire,
the lick of beginning to know you don’t know.

If life is a stage,
that is the show.
Exit Dionysus.”
― Anne Carson, The Bacchae

“and you've cried once more because recognition feels like forgiveness, which is a burning furnace that can't stand on its own. Love is a feast but you've learned to abstain. There is a sickness that follows the shame of giving with love only to be met with slaughter.”
