“Of course, there is always a danger that one group of people might begin to see the entire world through the lens of their specialization?

Just as there is always the danger that makers of dioramas might see the world through the lens of their time?”
― Steve Tomasula, VAS: An Opera in Flatland

“Here is the toil of that house, and the inextricable wandering”
― Virgil, The Aeneid

“You shall be my roots and
I will be your shade,
though the sun burns my leaves.

You shall quench my thirst and
I will feed you fruit,
though time takes my seed.

And when I'm lost and can tell nothing of this earth
you will give me hope.

And my voice you will always hear.
And my hand you will always have.

For I will shelter you.
And I will comfort you.
And even when we are nothing left,
not even in death,
I will remember you.”
― Mark Z. Danielewski, House of Leaves

“Light is the left hand of darkness
and darkness the right hand of light.
Two are one, life and death, lying
together like lovers in kemmer,
like hands joined together,
like the end and the way.”
― Ursula K. Le Guin, The Left Hand of Darkness
