Ouroboros

"Symbols are the natural speech of the soul, a language older and more universal than words."

~Edmund Spencer

"the raving ones"

"Suffice it to say that what the word “freedom” has generally come to mean for most of us now, when our usage is at its most habitual and unreflective, is libertarian autonomy and spontaneous volition, the negative freedom of the unrestrained or, at least, minimally restrained individual will. It is a concept of freedom not only impoverished, but ultimately incoherent."

~David Bentley Hart
