David Maze
“You don’t graduate earth by dodging the hard stuff. You outgrow the self that buckles under it.”
David Maze, 9 Analogies of Consciousness

“Do people who love more suffer more? Is love merely a tinted simile for accepting ourselves and unequivocally embracing other people’s ululating heart songs? Is hate the failure to love? Is evil merely the absence of good? Alternatively, is the root of hate and evil more than the lack of love and absence off goodness? Is darkness the absence of light, or does darkness encapsulate its own dynamism? Does the interaction of piousness and sinfulness along with the intermingling of knowledge and ignorance shadow our souls similar to how darkness interferes with light to create shades of opaqueness? What is self-love? Is it important to love oneself? Alternatively, is no self the ultimate test?”
Kilroy J. Oldster, Dead Toad Scrolls
