“...In being everything is circuitous, roundabout, recurrent; a chaplet of sojournings, a refrain of endless verses.

But what a spiral man’s being represents! And what a number of invertible dynamisms there are in this spiral. One never knows whether one is running toward the center or escaping.”

— Gaston Bachelard, Poetics of Space
