Quote by Susanne Wedlich

“We now know that the proverbial snail's pace is compelled to be so by pedal mucus, which is so powerfully adhesive – even when serving as a lubricant – that the creature is hard-pressed to free itself from the slime, and the slime in turn is difficult to remove from the ground.”

“Absolute is infinitesimal, almost nonexistent “materially.” It is smaller than any conceivable shape or object, smaller than a quark, not even the size of the Planck length. In its volume, every divided world and Everything inhabited by emptiness is “bigger” than the Absolute. But only this nothing, emptiness, makes the life of the Absolute possible. If the One is undivided, it is without motion; the power becomes a weakness because it is without an exit.”
