Epigraphs
People of Orphalese, beauty is life when life unveils her holy face.
But you are life and you are the veil. Beauty is eternity gazing at itself in a mirror.
But you are eternity and you are the mirror.
— The Prophet, by Khalil Gibran https://www.gutenberg.org/files/58585/58585-h/58585-h.htm
Fourmillante cité, cité pleine de rêves,
Où le spectre en plein jour raccroche le passant.
Unreal city, city full of dreams,
Where ghosts in broad daylight cling to passsers-by.
— Fleurs du mal, by Baudelaire via T.S. Elio
