“The Good Things were too weak to defend themselves from the Bad Things, so the Bad Things drove them off to heaven. The Good Things then asked Zeus how they could reach mankind. Zeus told them that they should not go together all at once, only one at a time. This is why people are constantly besieged by Bad Things, since they are nearby, while Good Things come more rarely, since they must descend to us from heaven one by one.”
Aesop’s Fables, 525. Zeus and the Good Things, trans. Laura Gibbs, Perry 274 (Chambry 1).
 
“From heavy cloud, from fog, from squall of rain
She lifts us to herself, we’re winged again,
You know her well, to nowhere she’s confined
— A wingbeat —aeons vanish far behind.”
[“Aus Wolkendecke, Nebel, Regenschauer
Erhebt sie uns, mitihr, durch sie beflügelt,
Ihr kennt sie wohl, sie schwärmt nach allen Zonen;
Ein Flügelschlag – und hinter uns Äonen!”]
J.W. Goethe, Urworte. Orphisch (Primal Words.Orphic), 1817: [Elpis] Hoffnung (Hope).
 
“And just sometimes, but very rarely, those ties twist and turn and weave around us, until one loose end becomes knotted to another. Then, very softly, they encompass us, they form a circle, which is the crown, perfection.”
Roberto Calasso, The Marriage of Cadmus and Harmony, Chapter VIII, Knopf, 1994, p. 285.
