PHILOSOPHY AND LITERATURE Quotes

“The breath you claim as yours,
Once stirred the dust of stars.
The blood that runs your course,
Flowed through forgotten winds.
The soil you walk, remembers you,
Not as an owner, but as its child.
You are just the turning page,
Of a universal, waking dream.”
― Alexis karpouzos, PHILOSOPHY AND LITERATURE: EXPLORING ONTOLOGY, AESTHETICS AND HERMENEUTICS

“Who are you, if not the morning
before the first dawn?
If not the river that flows
without needing a name?
Your hands hold no borders.
Your heart chants no flags.
You belong to the sky
and the soil,
to the sorrow of stones
and the laughter of trees.”
― Alexis Karpouzos, PHILOSOPHY AND LITERATURE: EXPLORING ONTOLOGY, AESTHETICS AND HERMENEUTICS

“Child of the world,
you are the dream between opposites,
light in the arms of darkness,
chaos folded into order.
The cosmos remembers you.
you live in the silence of the owl,
in the death of stars
you live in the breath where time forgets itself.”
