“A man sets out to draw the world. As the years go by, he peoples a
space with images of provinces, kingdoms, mountains, bays, ships,
islands, fishes, rooms, instruments, stars, horses, and individuals. A
short time before he dies, he discovers that the patient labyrinth of
lines traces the lineaments of his own face.”
― Jorge Luis Borges, The Aleph and Other Stories
“Dogs are our link to paradise. They don't know evil or jealousy or discontent. To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring ― it was peace.” (Milan Kundera)
