Matthew Cristello




" He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And when you gaze long into an abyss the abyss also gazes into you."-Friedrich Nietzsche.
 
Deep introspection can lead through many dark corridors of the mind. When unchecked, a passing thought becomes ravenous, consuming the conscience until all but a singularity remains. One might ask if it is better to look into oneself from afar, or to face ones demons head on. The truth however remains the same, no matter the vantage point. Gaze carefully.
