at first we take form




mosaic of fish facing right, by an unknown roman artist found in tunis, tunisia, from the 3rd century-5th century a.d.





there are very few human beings who receive the truth, complete and staggering, by instant illumination. most of them acquire it fragment by fragment, on a small scale, by successive developments, cellularly, like a laborious mosaic.
