"We might as well start dating the new era from Quetzalcoatl's 2012 now, since that's what they're going to do anyway once they've forgotten what it meant for real." --Parsifal Mosaic, Com* Glut th* Str**ts with Spill*d Bodily Fluids (2006)

Excess of Mercy did not make this world;
in strangest strangeness. Yet also, a password
into. If only all! we thrive
like weeds in a wall. We pray
to Father Christmas while breaking on the wheel.
Do you think I don't know that?
I have so many lies at hand.
I choose at times to be harsh for truth, though.
For honor. (That despised word.)
Honor is a harder thing than love,
so I spare everyone but those I truly love...
And not a day passes that I don't despair
in this labyrinth of knives where I'm still too nesh.
And that is how I know I don't belong!"

--Ald*rman Whinny, Th* Sun Som*tim*s Ris*s (1911)
