“A little Learning is a dangerous Thing; Drink deep, or taste not the Pierian Spring.
For shallow draughts intoxicate the brain,
And drinking largely sobers us again.
Fired at first sight with what the Muse imparts,
In fearless youth we tempt the heights of arts.
While from the bounded level of our mind,
short views we take, nor see the lengths behind;
But more advanced, behold with strange surprise:
New distant scenes of endless science rise! ”
–Alexander Pope

Overview

xxxxxThere is no high road to learning. There is no substitute for experience. The only way to conquer the world is to know it completely.
xxxxxYou can't escape facing the world. Even if you bar your doors and never emerge, you still need to develop a sense of self.
xxxxxEven having faced yourself, defeated your demons and conquered your fears, you still need to learn of others.
xxxxxEveryone is false. The truths of another person and their fictions are hopelessly intertwined. You cannot know what you cannot prove.
xxxxxIf, by some glorious miracle, you can see the truth, prove it, what can you do if it is more terrible than you could ever have imagined?
xxxxx The only way to learn is to go out into the world. The only thing to fear is the thing you already know.

xxxxx xxxxx xxxxxThe key to understanding Alexia is to realize that she is utterly fearless except for one thing... And that thing is not other people.

Return To Serenity - Testament
- I'm gonna take you to a place far from here...
- No one will see us; watch the pain as it disappears.
- No time for anger, no time for despair...
- Won't you come with me? There's a room for us there.
- I'm so alone. My head's my home.
- I return to serenity.
Beautiful Ones - Poets of the Fall
- Flies with a broken wing, she's ever so graceful,
- So like an Angel, but I see,
- Tears flow quietly...
- The troubles she's seen this spring,
- When nothing comes dancing...
- Paying a handsome fee, and still she smiles at me...
You're Still Here - Poets of the Fall
- Mercury dances in its skyscraper cell,
- Rising and falling like rhapsody.
- And I see winter's broken like lace,
- In time for a celebration...
- Thaw wails inside the walls,
- And laughs in the corners...
- Delighting in its evident victory.
Where Do We Draw The Line? - Poets of the Fall
- The dance of flames and shadows in the street
- Make poetry nobody's ever heard...
- The weight of lonelinesss stands on your feet
- The cage already there around the bird.
Rewind - Poets of the Fall
- If life itself has a meaning
- Is it anything more than what we choose to call it?
- Sweet words make appealing,
- But they only serve to mask
- the smell of what you buried.
