departure

«Modernity exists in the form of a desire to wipe out whatever came earlier, in the hope of reaching at least a point that could be called a true present, a point of origin that marks a new departure.»
«Him that has control of departure, that has control of coming home, return, and turning in, that shepherd do I also call.»
Author: Atharva Veda | Keywords: Coming Home, departure

«And they shall take up a lamentation for thee, and say to thee, How art thou destroyed, that wast inhabited of seafaring men, the renowned city, which wast strong in the sea, she and her inhabitants, which cause their terror to be on all that haunt it! / Now shall the isles tremble in the day of thy fall; yea, the isles that are in the sea shall be troubled at thy departure.»

«Change begets change. Nothing propagates so fast. If a man habituated to a narrow circle of cares and pleasures, out of which he seldom travels, step beyond it, though for never so brief a space, his departure from the monotonous scene on which he has been an actor of importance would seem to be the signal for instant confusion. The mine which Time has slowly dug beneath familiar objects is sprung in an instant; and what was rock before, becomes but sand and dust.»
«An idea is a point of departure and no more. As soon as you elaborate it, it becomes transformed by thought.»
