The world is full of magical things patiently waiting for our wits to grow sharper.

Space Night

This is why dreams can be such dangerous things: they smolder on like a fire does, and sometimes they consume us completely. - Arthur Golden

Das Leben wohnt in jedem Sterne:

Er wandelt mit den andern gerne
Die selbsterwählte, reine Bahn,
Im innern Erdenball pulsieren
Die Kräfte, die zur Nacht uns führen
Und wieder zu dem Tag heran.
    
 Johann Wolfgang von Goethe - Zahme Xenien VI 


 
There dwells a life in every star:
With brother spheres it rolls afar
Its self-elected, radiant way.
Still throb within the great earth-ball
The forces which conduct us all
From day to night, from night to day.
   
 Johann Wolfgang von Goethe - Thame Xenien VI
