oroboros commented on the word doors
Above the three doors on the front of the building hung these three signs:
“What To Do When There Is Nothing To Be Done,�?
“What To Do When Something Must Be Done,�? and,
“What To Do When You Understand That Whatever You Do Will Make No Difference,�?
and all three doors opened into the same lecture hall.
