"There are things that are known, and things that are unknown, in between are the doors." - JIM
"The roads of excess lead to the palace of wisdom"

All or nothing, the ecstatic risk!

Aristotle - "Mystery festivals should be unforgettable events, casting their shadow over the whole of one's future life, creating experiences that transform existence"
Nietzsche, Van Gogh, Rimbaud, Baudelaire, Poe, Blake, Artaud, Cocteau, Nijinsky, Byron, Coleridge, Dylan Thomas, Brendan Behan, Jack Derouac & finally Jim Morisson.

---- D. Sugerman.
