"What if we are living in Ganon's darkness between worlds? It would explain the strange, tense, shattering, and frustrating tenor of the times. . . For we modern creatures are people with everything and nothing all at once. We, at least, if we are among the lucky ones, have every[thing]. . .in the world available to us. But we are lacking two things that we seem to need but grasp at nonetheless: meaning and roots." — Feb 12, 2026 02:13PM

“The sweetest thing in all my life has been the longing — to reach the Mountain, to find the place where all the beauty came from — my country, the place where I ought to have been born. Do you think it all meant nothing, all the longing? The longing for home? For indeed it now feels not like going, but like going back.”

“There is no Frigate like a Book
To take us Lands away
Nor any Coursers like a Page
Of prancing Poetry –
This Traverse may the poorest take
Without oppress of Toll –
How frugal is the Chariot
That bears a Human soul.”
― Selected Poems

“Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate
And though I oft have passed them by
A day will come at last when I
Shall take the hidden paths that run
West of the Moon, East of the Sun.”
