Quote by Lynne Tillman

“Estranged mountains bulged under the sky, the big sky, the endless sky. Anyway, no one could see an end to it, which reassured her, since so much seemed to be coming to an end. It felt that way. But it seemed impossible---the universe dropping off, ending, there would be an end, and then there would be nothing, a no more, a vacuum of no more. Her imagination couldn’t let her go there.”

“The universe is one, timeless and limitless. No more no less. every thing is part of the non created one. There is no first or second or beginig and end. The one can not be created from another one, if it was created it can not be the one or the first. The first can not be created from another one. There is no first or second one. The one it can not be first or second. The one can not be created, born or die. Each part of the one is the one. There is no more or less than the one wich is logically every thing and so everything are the non created limitless and timeless one. Whatever found and we know and we will find are pre existing parts of the non created one. All creations are possible and created from the pre existing elements (energy matter or any other things we do not know and we may never find) so there is nothing new or old. Within all the parts of the one there is no good or evil birth or death big or small because all created from the parts of the non created one. Logically the unknown number of all the parts of the one can not be more or less. So the number of all is one and we can not have more or less than the number of all wich we do not know and we may never know because this number is limitless. However the possibilities aloud us to have mixtures opinions and fantasy and many other abilities wich are also parts of the one. Any creation can not be evil because creation is good, so anything created is part of the one and logically good because creation is good anyway. Glaufx Garland 2018 Attempt Based on pre Platonic philosophy.”

“My dear, the universe runs itself, and the eternal laws inherent in Nature suffice, without any first cause or prime mover, to produce all there is and all that we know; the perpetual movement of matter explains everything: why need we supply a motor to that which is ever in motion? The universe is an assemblage of unlike entities which act and react mutually and successively with and against each other; I discern no start, no finish, no fixed boundaries, this universe I see only as an incessant passing from one state into another, and within it only particular beings which forever change shape and form, but I acknowledge no universal cause behind and distinct from the universe and which gives it existence and which procures the modifications in the particular beings composing it.”
