AND I HAVE FOUND BOTH FREEDOM AND SAFETY IN MY MADNESS, THE FREEDON OF LONELINESS AND THE SAFETY FROM BEING UNDERSTOOD, FOR THOSE WHO UNDERSTAND US ENSLAVE SOMETHING IN US, BUT LET ME NOT BE TO PROUD OF MY SAFETY, EVEN A THIEF IN A JAIL IS SAFE FROM ANOTHER THIEF!::Gibran 1918
When thou ascendest to thy Heaven I descend to my Hell even then thou callest to me across the unbridgeable gulf, "My companion, my comrade," and I call back to thee, "My comrade, my companion" -- for I would not have thee see my Hell. The flame would burn thy eyesight and the smoke would crowd thy nostrils. And I love my Hell too well to have thee visit it. I would be in Hell alone.Khalil Gibran:1918

Nur ein ganz Törichter kann die Ansicht haben, im unendlichen Raum, auf den zahllosen Riesenwelten, gebe es nichts anderes als das Licht, das wir auf ihnen wahrnehmen. Es ist geradezu albern, anzunehmen, es gebe keine anderen Lebewesen, keine anderen Denkvermögen und keine anderen Sinne als die uns bekannten. Giordano Bruno (ital. Denker, 1548-1600)
