Shūsaku Endō
“Every weakness contains within itself a strength.”
Shusaku Endo

Leonard Seet
“I would enter the desert alone, to leave in the sand endless footprints only to be obliterated by the wind, to walk the same path each day expecting the same path tomorrow, and perhaps to cease wondering at the bloom and wither of lilies only to linger for death.

Leonard Seet, Meditation on Space-Time

Leonard Seet
“I am an imperfect man living in an imperfect world, trying to weave through the chaotic interactions of semi-causal events with linear logic, contradictory emotions, dialectic wisdom, and mortal integrity.”
Leonard Seet

Leonard Seet
“More than once, the broken moon would cast through the window a silver light and remind me of independent events yielding to their own momentum and interacting under natural laws while my mind would impose happiness, grief, beauty, ruin, justice and chaos.”
Leonard Seet

“Racism still exists in the U.S., but we have the strength and courage to overcome it.”
Leonard Seet
