Letter "T" » The Oracle
«The best way to know any future is to cause one. And that?s why, you see, when you start consulting the oracle at Delphi, you?ve taken a step downhill. You have assigned cause for the future elsewhere...So one predicts the future as much as one is cause. The future isn?t a pattern laid out to abuse and bully you. The future is a beautiful playground that nobody happen to be combining. You talk about virgin territory ? the most virgin territory there is, is the future. You can do anything you want with it.»
