English Version | “If I got rid of all my demons, I’d lose my angels”

The phrase is Tennessee Williams’, immortalized in an interview to Playboy in 1973 and, despite being about a side of his personal life, here it works as a starting point to the symbiosis between Evil and Good.

In what is the most epic battle ever, the forces of Light usually beat the Darkness, but to fully annihilate it is also to delete what wants to be lit. In the end, Good and Evil balance each other out on a scale of experiences which requires angst in order to enjoy tranquility. Which needs to lose in order to aspire to win. Which lacks ends that make new beginnings. A Yin to a Yang of a life with ups and downs, but is never boring.
