“A man sets out to draw the world.
As the years go by, he peoples a
space with images of provinces,
kingdoms, mountains, bays, ships,
islands, fishes, rooms, instruments, stars, horses, and individuals.
A
short time before he dies,
he discovers that the patient labyrinth of
lines
traces
the lineaments of his own face.”
― Jorge Luis Borges, The Aleph and Other Stories
