Leopards in the temple
Leopards in the Temple
Leopards break into the temple and drink to the dregs what is in the sacrificial pitchers; this is repeated over and over again; finally it can e calculated in advance, and it becomes a part of the ceremony.
--Franz Kafka (1883-1924), (transl. Clement Greenberg), from Parables and Paradoxes, 1946
