3 quotes from Popol Vuh
- "The world was then a sea, and the waters were secret, for there was no land, no people, no animals, no birds, no trees; only a stillness and a silence over the face of the waters."
- "The gods said: 'Let us make man, so that he may praise us, give thanks to us.' And thus the search for the ideal creation began, for what they desired was a being that could acknowledge their power and existence."
- "Through dreams and visions, the tales unfold, revealing the cycles of creation, destruction, and rebirth, teaching us that every ending is but a new beginning."
