My favourite quotes which I find inspiring and close to my heart and soul.
All photos were taken by me.

Omnis mundi creatura
Quasi liber et pictura 
Nobis est in speculum. 
Nostrae vitae, nostrae mortis 
Nostrae status, nostrae mortis
Fidele signaculum.

which means:

All of creation,
Like a book and a picture,
Is a mirror for us.
Of our life, of our state;
Of our death, of our fate

“Those who are able to see beyond 
the shadows and lies of their culture
will never be understood, 
let alone believed, by the masses.”

- Plato

"If we can stay with the tension of
opposites long enough —sustain it,
be true to it—we can sometimes
become vessels within which the
divine opposites come together and
give birth to a new reality."

- Marie-Louise von Franz

“It's easy to be a naive idealist. 
It's easy to be a cynical realist. 
It's quite another thing to have no illusions 
and still hold the inner flame.”

- Marie-Louise von Franz
