You must go by a way which is the way of ignorance.
In order to possess what you do not possess
You must got by the way of dispossession.
In order to arrive at what you are not
You must got through the way in which you are not."
-T.S. ELIOT
"Make your own Bible. Select and collect all the words and sentences that in your reading have been like the blast of triumph out of Shakespeare, Seneca, Moses, John and Paul." - EMERSON
