“Let chaos storm!
Let cloud shapes swarm!
I wait for form.”

“You say, “It is dark.” And in truth, I did place a cloud before your sun. But do you not see how the edges of the cloud are already glowing and turning light.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“Here’s neither bush nor shrub to bear off any weather at all. And another storm brewing, I hear it sing i’ the wind. Yond same black cloud, yond huge one, looks like a foul bombard that would shed his liquor. If it should thunder as it did before, I know not where to hide my head. Yond same cloud cannot choose but fall by pailfuls.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
