The Ship of Fools

Matto rules!

We are not free citizens of serious and respectable nation states under the rule of law but incarcerated inmates of outdoor mental institutions, of alfresco asylums, of open-air loony bins or of exterior theme parks, under the rule of insanity.

Der Mensch ist eingesperrt in einen eisernen Käfig von Irrtümern.
Man is jailed in an iron cage of delusions.
Nietzsche,
Aus dem Nachlass der Achtzigerjahre
From the estate of the eighties
The Ship of Fools
Das Narrenschiff
Zu Schiff, zu Schiff, Brüder. Es geht, es geht.
The Ship of Fools
To Ship, to Ship, Brothers. It works, it works.

Incarcerated, we are free through our labor.

Incarcerated, we are free through our labor.
Eingesperrt, sind wir durch unsere Arbeit frei.
