"Three-complex formula of human life: the irreversibility of the past, the insatiability of the present, and the unpredictability of the future."
“But perhaps most essential is the feeling of a universal rhythm of which we are a part simply thanks to the circulation of our blood.”
~ Czesław Miłosz

"Great men need to be lifted upon the shoulders of the whole world, in order to conceive their great ideas or perform their great deeds. That is, there must be an atmosphere of greatness round about them. A hero cannot be a hero unless in an heroic world."
~ Nathaniel Hawthorne
