‘Dear You,

You are here. I don’t know how I know that this is the beginning of you.

I just do.

I should be afraid.

But what I feel is, we can do this. You and I.’

‘All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.’ ~ Arthur Schopenhauer

'I was that silly thing that one was wrought,
to practice this thin love;
I climb'd from sex to soul, from soul to thought;
But thinking there to move,
Headlong I rolled from the thought to soul, and then
From soul I lighted at the sex again.'
- William Cartwright, ''No Platonic Love''
