“Is birth always a fall?”
“Gods and wonders always appear, to attend the birth of kings.”
“It is not always easy for us to distinguish between a moment of dying and a moment of new birth.”
“If a birth is the fall-out from the explosion caused by the union of two unstable elements, then perhaps a half-life is all we can expect. ”
“Do we fear death? Of course. But it is death that makes room for birth, and the cycle of life is as natural as the rise and fall of the Nile. Death is our last and greatest duty.”
“Waiters will always pee in soup, people will always fall in love.”
