"And if they break into their capital, lose a thing or two in these attempts at incarnation, then soon, jealously, they retrieve their possessions, call them in, reintegrate: as a result, white spots appear in our biography -- scented stigmata, the faded silvery imprints of the bare feet of angels, scattered footmarks on our nights and days -- while the fullness of life waxes, incessantly supplements itself, and towers over us in wonder after wonder."
#BrunoSchulz "The Book" [2/2]

"Well then, did the Age of Genius ever occur? It is difficult to answer this question. Yes and no. There are things that cannot ever occur with any precision. They are too big and too magnificent to be contained in mere facts. They are merely trying to occur, they are checking whether the ground of reality can carry them. And they quickly withdraw, fearing to lose their integrity in the frailty of realization."
