and the cynicism overtakes us

As far as we can discern, the sole purpose of human existence is to kindle a light in the darkness of mere being.
-Carl Gustav Jung





We have art in order not to die of the truth.
-Friedrich Nietzsche






May heaven protect us, cher monsieur, from being set on a pedestal by our friends.
-Albert Camus





True excellence is rarely found, even more rarely is it cherished.
-Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
