Have I piqued your curiosity? You must have so many questions.                                      Seek the answers yourself — if you dare.

                         — Carl Gustav Jung; Memories, Dreams, Reflections                                                                  [insp]

I leave it to you.

Oh Ignis, let down your hair?!

i.                                         I searched for jewels and treasure, ii.                                             And mined for golden ore. iii.                                             I head home a bit wiser, iv.                                            But no richer than before.

“You are the wisest man alive. You know what is preparing. Why do you not make a plan to save yourself?” “Because I am wise. In the combat between wisdom and feeling, wisdom never wins.” ― John Steinbeck, “The Acts of King Arthur and His Noble Knights”
