“Something to think about next time you're looking out under the stars...

"Consider Gauss's mythical two-dimensional beings, living flat on a two-dimensional table top. To jail a criminal, the Flatlanders simply draw a circle around him. No matter which way the criminal moves, he hits the impenetrable circle. However, it is a trivial task for us to spring the prisoner from jail. We just reach down, grab the Flatlander, peel him off the two-dimensional world, and redeposit him elsewhere on this world. This feat, which is quite ordinary in three dimensions, appears fantastic in two dimensions.

To his jailer, the prisoner has suddenly disappeared from an escape proof prison, vanishing into thin air. Then just as suddenly, he reappears somewhere else. If you explain to the jailer that the prisoner was moved "up" and off Flatland, he would not understand what you were saying. The word "up" does not exist in the Flatlander's vocabulary, nor can he visualize the concept."

I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze
than it should be stifled by dry rot.

The proper function of man is to live, not to exist.
I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them.
I shall use my time."

All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;

Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be the blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”
