Koryu meets Chess

Not Martial Arts but Minerva's Arts. Through a Struggle, be guided by Philosophy, Faith, Art, and Science. Like a Forest from the Olive Tree that Athena, goddess of Wisdom, offered the Greek people a long time ago.

POETS IN A LONG NIGHT

And so she did: wandering up and down, and trying turn after turn, but always coming back   to the house, do what she would. Indeed, once, when she turned a corner   rather more quickly than usual, she ran against it before she could stop herself.   ‘It’s no use talking about it,’ Alice […]

POETS CONFUSING

Dost thou know Dover? Ay, master. There is a cliff, whose high and bending head   Looks fearfully in the confined deep: Bring me but to the very brim of it,   And I’ll repair the misery thou dost bear With something rich about me:   from that place I shall no leading need. Give […]
