“Würde die Menschheit dieselben Anstrengungen in die Raumfahrt stecken wie die Redaktionen von Frauenzeitschriften in Blowjob-Ratgeber, könnten wir längst zum Kaffeetrinken auf den Mars.”
― Margarete Stokowski, Untenrum frei

“We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.
Through the unknown, remembered gate
When the last of earth left to discover
Is that which was the beginning;
At the source of the longest river
The voice of the hidden waterfall
And the children in the apple-tree
Not known, because not looked for
But heard, half-heard, in the stillness
Between two waves of the sea.

—T.S. Eliot, from “Little Gidding,” Four Quartets (Gardners Books; Main edition, April 30, 2001) Originally published 1943.”
