“Mephistopheles: Within the bowels of these elements,Where we are tortured and remain forever.Hell hath no limits, nor is circumscribedIn one self place, for where we are is hell,And where hell is must we ever be.And, to conclude, when all the world dissolves,And every creature shall be purified,All places shall be hell that is not heaven.”

Christopher Marlowe

“We have to be rid of all paradigms, I mean all, and go to that place where all paradigms dissolve. That’s what this certainly is all about; especially the scary paradigms.
