"Reality only reveals itself when it is illuminated by a ray of poetry." --Georges Brague
"Poetry is the music of the soul, and, above all, of great and feeling souls." --Voltaire
"In med school, I learned that cancer arrives in the body unannounced, a dark stranger who takes up residence, turning its new
home against itself. This is the evil of cancer, that it starts as an invader but soon becomes one with the invaded; forcing you to
destroy it but only at the risk of destroying yourself. It is science's demon possession; my treatments, science's attempt at
exorcism."
--Chris Carter, spoken through Dana Scully on The X-Files: "Memento Mori"
