    into the terrible water & walk forever
    under it out toward the island.”

    “The quality of the will to power is, precisely, growth. Achievement is its cancellation. To be, the will to power must increase with each fulfillment, making the fulfillment only a step to a further one. The vaster the power gained the vaster the appetite for more.”
    —Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929)
