From The Fall-Winter 1991/92 Seasonal Scarf Booklet: The cosmos is the universe in all of its parts: from the infinitesimally small to the infinitely vast. This paradox of harmony puts the limitations of our knowledge to the test. Indeed, the vertigo experienced by modern man may well stem from the immense mystery of the heavens, where night has succeeded day from time immemorial, brought about by Phoebus crossing the sky in his chariot of light.

From The Spring-Summer 1999 Seasonal Scarf Booklet: The world, the wide world, the universe with a thousand billion stars illuminating the inky night, and each earthly day dying in blazing agony, so that each dawn can be rebom in the quartz of alarm clocks... And each man then, rising from his bed in the knowledge that the sun is shining beyond, and that its light is flooding the streets, where the women are so beautiful, so bursting with the desire to smile. There it is, the great cosmic mystery. It has biblical simplicity.
