“One doesn't discover new lands without consenting to lose sight of the shore for a very long time.”
The Counterfeiters • Andre Gide“14. If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”
The Art Of War • Sun Tzu“„When artists create pictures and thinkers search for laws and formulate thoughts, it is in order to salvage something from the great dance of death, to make something that lasts longer than we do.“”
