The Rest



"The future is all around us,
waiting in moments of transition
to be born in moments of revelation.
No one knows the shape of that future,
or where it will take us.
We know only that it is always born in pain."
- The Book of G'Quon (Babylon 5)



"The moon is arising as the light dwindles low,
the wolves howl at the sky's omniscient glow
Their tracks find your scent in the drafts of the snow
and the crows search the sky for a prayer below."
- Ronald Rand



"Sometimes there is no darker place than our own thoughts:
the moonless midnight of the mind."

"There is a greater darkness than the one we fight.
It is the darkness of the soul that has lost its way.
The war we fight is not against powers and principalities,
it is against chaos and despair.
Greater than the death of flesh
is the death of hope, the death of dreams.
Against this peril we can never surrender."
- The Book of G'Quon (Babylon 5)



"There's no use wasting energy being afraid of devils,
demons, and things that go bump in the night...
because ultimately, we'll never encounter anything
more terrifying than the monsters among us.
Hell is where we make it.
- unknown



"A heap of broken images, where the sun beats,
And the dead tree gives no shelter, the cricket no relief,
And the dry stone no sound of water. Only
There is shadow under this red rock,
(Come in under the shadow of this red rock),
And I will show you something different from either
Your shadow in the morning striding behind you
Or your shadow at evening rising to meet you;
I will show you fear in a handful of dust."
- T.S. Elliot, The Waste Lands
