  • Life, my dear Watson, is infinitely stranger than fiction; stranger than anything which the mind of man could invent. We could not conceive the things that are merely commonplace to existence.

Before me things create were none, save things Eternal, and eternal I shall endure. All hope abandon, ye who enter here.
