"Man beholds the earth, and it is breathing……" — Peter Wessel Zapffe

"Man beholds the earth, and it is breathing like a great lung; whenever it exhales, delightful life swarms from all its pores and reaches out toward the sun, but when it inhales, a moan of rupture passes through the multitude, and corpses whip the ground like bouts of hail."

Peter Wessel Zapffe
