Search the Garden

Jorge Luis Borges

  • "Under the trees of England I meditated on this lost and perhaps mythical labyrinth. I imagined it untouched and perfect on the secret summit of some mountain; I imagined it drowned under rice paddies or beneath the sea; I imagined it infinite, made not only of eight-sided pavilions and of twisting paths but also of rivers, provinces and kingdoms. I thought of a maze of mazes, of a sinuous, ever growing maze which would take in both past and future and would somehow involve the stars."

OK, I'll say what everyone else must be thinking: did he make people offers they couldn't understand?

(Apologies in advance...) So, he was a Wiseguy looking to be a wise guy?

but why are wise guys dying?? was it a deliberatively taken action? did he died for a great cause like Sokrates??
