  • "We are to become igneous. This is how the phoenix rises. From below the atmosphere, sure, it seems as if its laden wings are headed nowhere. Its fire must become one with the air that even now feels too heavy. ... but...what is air when eaten by fire? The heavier, the more oxygen it gives to burn. The greater and stronger wings become. Asking these kinds of questions means you won't be numb forever, and that alone is everything to live for. Too few ever ask. "

  • "This is something I've thought about in melancholy. I will say it because you've been so brave. Every mistake we make is because of the desire for change. You're so right. As with Rome, humans seem to require madness and destruction in order to alter present course. I hope it doesn't get this extreme, we all do. But it may. Well said."
