About this image

"Cyrnus, this polis is pregnant, and I fear it may give birth to a man, an insolent man, leader of harsh discord.
For these citizens are still prudent, but the leaders are poised to fall into great wickedness."
Theognis, lines 1081-1082.

"So that if any person once lets me depart on my winged feet, I may not thereafter be caught by having my hair seized. 
It was for your sake, stranger, that the craftsman produced me with art, so I warn all, it is an open portico that holds me."
Andrea Alciato, Emblematum (1534), In Occasionem [Goddess of Chance].

"Though in Greek this god is masculine, and his name Kairos, Due Time." 
[Always running, fly with the wind, keener than a razor's edge, never seized from behind & a companion: Remorse.]

"Fail not when opportunity is fair, Behind Time's bald, his forehead's thick with hair."
Cato, Distichs, Book II, 26:2, trans. W. J. Chase [Posidippus, Greek Anthology, 16:275; Ausonius, Epigram 33.]

"Begin betimes; occasion's bald behind. Slip not thine opportunity, for fear too late 
Thou seek'st for much, but canst not compass it. Within here!"
Christopher Marlowe, The Jew of Malta, Act V, Scene 2, 1593 [Like the ass that Æsop speaketh of.]

"Content to neither love nor be loved,  seeing what was good for her in what was bad for others. She regards the deceit 
of lovers, the true will disdained because [it is] unshakable,  and from having been advised by the experience of others, 
her will flees the strange behavior of love."
María de Zayas y Sotomayor, Taking a Chance on Losing, in Exemplary Tales of Love, p. 89.

Fade death of Feynriel caused Hope to swallow Sloth & create forgetfulness: no excuses & no forgiveness asked nor given. 

"Thus everything is in permanent tension and forced movement, and the course of the world goes on, to use an expression of 
Aristotle, De Coelo, II, 13, motu non naturali, sed violento [not naturally, but violently]. Only apparently are people drawn from 
in front; in reality they are pushed from behind. It is not life that entices them on, but want and trouble that drive them forward."
Arthur Schopenhauer, The World as Will and Representation, Volume II, Chapter 28. Characterization of the Will-to-Live.

"Thus we smash the mirror, project ourselves imaginatively upon a person whom we admire, and then relish the new image of 
our self, even though we call it by the name of the other person—and this entire process is supposed not to involve self-deceit, 
not to involve egoism, you amazing people!"
Friedrich Nietzsche, Human, All Too Human II, Part I. Mixed Opinions and Maxims, #37.
