„Where is the Life we lost in living?“

— T.S. Eliot

„O perpetual revolution of configured stars,O perpetual recurrence of determined seasons,O world of spring and autumn, birth and dying!The endless cycle of idea and action,Endless invention, endless experiment,Brings knowledge of motion, but not of stillness;Knowledge of speech, but not of silence;Knowledge of words, and ignorance of The Word.All our knowledge brings us nearer to our ignorance,All our ignorance brings us nearer to death,But nearness to death no nearer to God.Where is the Life we have lost in living?Where is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge?Where is the knowledge we have lost in information?The cycles of Heaven in twenty centuriesBrings us farther from God and nearer to the Dust.“
— T.S. Eliot
„We live in a political worldWhere mercy walks the plank,Life is in mirrors, death disappearsUp the steps into the nearest bank.“
— Bob Dylan
„We are all life trying to live, among other life trying to live.“
— Albert Einstein
