PART THREE: LOTUS

'Whoever fights monsters should see to it that, in the process, he does not become a monster. If you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you.'
~Friedrich Nietzsche

'Danger alone acquaints us with our own resources, our virtues, our armour and weapons, our spirit  and forces us to be strong.'
~Friedrich Nietzsche
