Just once and no more. And we also once. Never again. But this having been once, although only once, to have been of the earth, seems irrevocable.“ — Rainer Maria Rilke „You neglect and belittle the desert.The desert is not remote in southern tropicsThe desert is not only around the corner,The desert is squeezed in the tube-train next to you,The desert is in the heart of your brother.“ — T.S. Eliot „Wonderful but true! Shall future progeny of men believe, when crops grow again and this desert shall once more be green, that cities and peoples are buried below and that an ancestral countryside vanished in a common doom? Nor does the summit yet cease its deadly thrust.“ — Statius „Ask me again, once we defeat Gaea.“ — Rick Riordan „Yes, and only if my own true love was waitingIf I could hear his heart softly poundingYes, and only if he was lying by meWould I lie in my bed once again.“ — Bob Dylan
