"The moment you enter into the world of words, you start falling away from that which is.

The more you enter into language the farther you are from existence.

Language is a great falsification, it is not a bridge,

it is not communication - it is a barrier."

Language and thought slow down the design process, they corrupt it…

Design only becomes design when it is spontaneous; it is only when we forget everything we have learned, all the habits we were given, that creation begins…

Inspired by Osho, Cyrille Najjar
