“Truth has to be given in riddles. People can't take truth if it comes charging at them like a bull. The bull is always killed. You have to give people the truth in a riddle, hide it so they go looking for it and find it piece by piece; that way they learn to live with it.”
by Chaim Potok in "My Name Is Asher Lev"

All the music in this album was written on the idea that truth cannot be completely perceived if it comes directly to you from someone else. It has to be a process of self discovery.
