“The safest general characterization of the European philosophical tradition is that it consists of a series of footnotes to Plato.”
–Alfred North Whitehead

Last lines of Goethe’s Faust

Everything past is but a metaphor!

What cannot be calculated is happening right here!

What cannot be described is being accomplished right here!

The Eternal Feminine (Mother Chaos, Mother Night) evolves us ever more and ever more.
