arthur streeton -- "ariadne" (1898)
"a labyrinthine man never seeks the truth, but only his ariadne" … friedrich nietzsche
"i sit here in the upper circle surrounded by copper and gold, and smile with joy under my fly net as all the light, glory and quivering brightness passes slowly and freely before my eyes. nothing happier than this" … arthur streeton
"upon the shores of naxos, bleached and bare ariadne woke with tangled, salty hair the ship was gone—a smudge against the blue for theseus broke the only vow she knew she cried aloud, a desolate, thin sound with nothing but the silence all around" … monica rhodes
"it will be easy for us the first time we receive that ball of yarn from ariadne (love) and then go through all the mazes of the labyrinth (life) and kill the monster. but how many there are who plunge into life (the labyrinth) without taking that precaution?" … søren kierkegaard
"ariadne never sought untruth, but only her labyrinthine man" … al janik
