As stupid and vicious as men are, this is a lovely day.

Because he (the Sage) opposes no one, no one in the world can oppose him.

Facing the kitsch aesthetic is the unfathomable world of myths.

I will direct one day. I need some more life experience before I feel like I can do something like that comfortably. It'd be a feature, it'd be something maybe that I had in writing as well.
