The paths of humans are manifold. Whoever follows and compares them finds wonderful figures appearing; figures that seem to belong to the great cipher glimpsed everywhere in wings and eggshells, clouds and snow, in crystals and rock formations, icy water, the inside and outside of mountains, in plants, animals and people, in cloudbursts, on scored and striated plates of glass or pitch, iron filings leaping to the magnet, in strange twists of fate.
