"Of my conception I know only what you know of yours. It occurred in darkness and I was unconsenting... By some bleak alchemy what had been mere unbeing becomes death when life is mingled with it."

Akiroq Brost

"Life is too short, or too long, for me to allow myself the luxury of living it so badly."

Akiroq Brost

"If your existence does not make any difference, you are no more than a dead body."

Akiroq Brost

"We live in the shadows of perception. Our dull awareness gives us no useful clues as to why we are here."

Akiroq Brost

"Disquietude that springs from the fundamental nature of being a human being is vaster and more encompassing than depression, which has a cause and therefore a cure."

Quote_1.png
Akiroq Brost

"All life depends upon the opportunistic interplay between elemental forces, the mysterious dualities of the numinous universe. Ying and yang forces of the natural world (lightness and darkness, fire and water, expansion and contraction) create tangible dualities that are complementary, interconnected, and independent. Without the firmament in the midst of the waters, without both sunshine and water, no life forms could subsist on this rocky orb. Without the rich soil surrounded by a canopy of an illimitable sky how could we feed ourselves, how could we breathe?"

"It seems to me that I have always existed and that I possess memories that date back to the Pharaohs."

Quote_1.png
Akiroq Brost

"This exists. It can be seen. It can be touched. These in pace, these dungeons, these iron hinges, these necklets, that lofty peep-hole on a level with the river's current, that box of stone closed with a lid of granite like a tomb, with this difference, that the dead man here was a living being, that soil which is but mud, that vault hole, those oozing walls, --what declaimers!"

Akiroq Brost

"Every sacred existence is history of time."

Quote_1.png
Akiroq Brost

"I could disappear from the face of the earth, and the world would go on moving without the slightest twinge. Things were tremendously complicated, to be sure, but one thing was clear: no one needed me."
