William Blake

To see a World in a Grain of Sand
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour.
W. Blake, from "Auguries of Innocence"

Every night and every morn
Some to misery are born.
Every morn and every night
Some are born to sweet delight.
Some are born to sweet delight,
Some are born to endless night.

(...)
The ancient tradition that the world will be consumed in fire
At the end of 6,000 years is true as I have heard from Hell
The whole creation will be consumed and appear infinite and holy
Where as it now appears finite and corrupt
This will come to pass by an improvement of sensual enjoyment
But the first notion that man has a body distinct from his soul is to be expunged
This I shall do by printing in the infernal method
By corrosives which in Hell are salutary and medicinal
Melting apparent surfaces away and displaying with infinite which is hid」
If the doors of perception were cleansed
Everything would appear to man as it is ...infinite

Hallelullah!
It works.
We blew the shit out of them.

We blew the shit right back up their own ass
And out their fucking ears.

It works.
We blew the shit out of them.
They suffocated in their own shit!

Hallelullah.
Praise the Lord for all good things.

We blew them into fucking shit.
They are eating it.

Praise the Lord for all good things.

We blew their balls into shards of dust,
Into shards of fucking dust.

We did it.

Now I want you to come over here and kiss me on the mouth.

Giordano Bruno

Ludwig Wittgenstein

"Death is not an event in life: we do not live to experience death. If we take eternity to mean not infinite temporal duration but timelessness, then eternal life belongs to those who live in the present."

"What can be said at all can be said clearly; and what we cannot talk about we must pass over in silence."

"Someone who knows too much finds it hard not to lie."

"A confession has to be part of your new life."

"You get tragedy where the tree, instead of bending, breaks."

"If people did not sometimes do silly things, nothing intelligent would ever get done."

"One often makes a remark and only later sees how true it is."
