--Garcia Marquez, "A Very Old Man With Enormous Wings" <$MTIfCategory name="Writings"> "Let us go forth, the tellers of tales, and seek whatever prey the heart long for, and have no fear. Everything exists, everything is true, and the earth is only a little dust under our feet."
--Yeats, Mythologies <$MTIfCategory name="Dreams"> "He knew that this temple was the place required for his invincible intent; he knew that the incessant trees had not succeeded in strangling the ruins of another propitious temple downstream which once had belonged to gods now burned and dead; he knew that his immediate obligation was to dream."
--Borges, "The Circular Ruins" <$MTIfCategory name="Visions"> "I wrapp'd myself in grandeur then, / And donn'd a visionary crown; / Yet it was not that Fantasy / Had thrown her mantle over me, / But that, among the rabble--men-- / Lion ambition is chain'd down, / And crouches to a keeper's hand; / Not so in deserts where the grand-- / The wild--the terrible conspire / With their own breath to fan his fire." --Poe, "Tamerlaine" <$MTIfCategory name="Realities"> "Young man on acid thought he could fly, jumped out of a building. What a tragedy." ... "If he thought he could fly, why didn't he take off from the ground?" --Bill Hicks, "Revelations"
