When asked, "What did God do before he created the universe?" St. Augustine didn't reply, "he was preparing Hell for people who asked such questions." Instead, he said that time was a property of the Universe that God created, and that time did not exist before the beginning of the Universe. (Stephen Hawking)

The shadow is on the other side of our psyche, the dark brother of the conscious mind. It is Cain, Caliban, Frankenstein's monster, Mr. Hyde. It is Virgil who gioded Dante through hell, Gilgamesh's friend Enkidu, Frodo's enemy Gollum. It is the Doppleganger. It is Mowgli's Grey Brother; the wereworlf; the wolf, the bear, the tiger of a thousand folktales; it is the serpent, Lucifer. The shadow stands on the threshold between conscious and unconscious mind, and we meet it in our dreams, as sister, brother, friend, beast, monster, enemy, guide. View quote
