"The death's-head is never missing behind the ogling mask and life is only the cap and bells which the Nothing has draped around to tinkle with and finally to tear up fiercely and hurl from itself. Everything is Nothing and vomits itself up and gulps itself greedily down, and even this self-devouring is an insidious sham, as if there were something whereas, if the choking were once to cease, precisely the Nothing would quite plainly make its appearance and all would be terrorstruck before it; by this cessation, fools understand "eternity"; but it is the real Nothing and absolute death, since life on the contrary,only arises through a continual dying."

Bonaventura, "Die Nachtwachen"
