Hi, welcome to my sporadically updated photo stream!

A few of my favourite quotes:

It’s life that matters, nothing but life – the process of discovering, the everlasting and perpetual process, not the discovery itself, at all. (Fyodor Dostoyevsky)

God does not send us despair in order to kill us; he sends it in order to awaken us to new life. (Hermann Hesse)

If you bring forth what is within you, what you bring forth will save you. If you do not bring forth what is within you, what you do not bring forth will destroy you. (The Gospel of Thomas)

The truth which makes men free is for the most part the truth which men prefer not to hear. (Herbert Agate)

The greatest obstacle to discovery is not ignorance – it is the illusion of knowledge. (Daniel J Boorstin)

The struggle of man against power is the struggle of memory against forgetting. (Milan Kundera)

You only have power over people as long as you don’t take everything away from them. But when you’ve robbed a man of everything he’s no longer in your power – he’s free again. (Alexander Solzhenitsyn)

The world we live in is vastly different from the world we think we live in. (Nassim Nicholas Taleb)
