We are in the period of darkness
between the Gods that have vanished
and the God that has not yet come,
between Matthew Arnold's two worlds,
'one dead, the other powerless to be born'
– Friedrich Hölderlin
—
Still round the corner there may wait
a new Road or a secret gate;
and though I oft have passed them by,
a day will come at last when I
shall take the hidden paths that run
West of the Moon, East of the Sun.
– J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
– WB Yeats, The Second Coming
