If you want to build a ship, don't drum up the men to gather wood, divide the work and give orders. Instead, teach them to yearn for the vast and endless sea.
~ Antoine de Saint-ExupĂ©ry (1900 – 1944) (attributed)

Catch 22
until the two become one
and the outside is as the inside
and the inside as outside
until what is above is below
and what is below above
until the eye is seen as the eye
the hand as the hand
the foot in place of the foot
and an image as an image
until the male
and the female become one
that the male not be male
and the female female
thou shall not enter
the kingdom of heaven
~ interpretation of saying attributed to Jesus/Yeshua.
22: The Gospel of Thomas; The Nag Hammadi Library.
