From William Markiewicz's Extracts of Existence, a book of original aphorisms illustrated by the author.


Life is a mirror, since conciousness means that exterior reality is reflected in us. For the dying person, life becomes a mirror of memories. For the prisoner in a cell or a hospital bed, life becomes an empty mirror.
