…perhaps there is a pattern set up in the heavens for one who desires to see it, and having seen it, to find one in himself. The Republic, Plato. 380 BC.

Nostalgia 7, Mikhaila Aldaba. 2011.

I have seen the truth; I have seen and I know that people can be beautiful and happy without losing the power of living on earth. I will not and cannot believe that evil is the normal condition of mankind. And it is just this faith of mine that they laugh at. But how can I help believing it? I have seen the truth — it is not as though I had invented it with my mind, I have seen it, seen it, and the living image of it has filled my soul for ever. The Dream of a Ridiculous Man, Fyodor Dostoevsky. 1877.
