A fountain is something that can never end...
Why this phrase? There are various elements involved first the word fountain and the concept something that can never end. What is a fountain and what does it mean whether it could contain within it that concept of something eternal. I could simply say a fountain is eternal but this would only play on one of the meanings possible. A fountain by nature when it is active perpetuates its activity, it flows it gives and it comes back second by second, it doesnt tire or do something new but its dependent on mechanics. To say a fountain is eternal is hyperbole but to say that it is something that can never end is going to the essence of what the fountain is during one given moment, it is the essence of our subjective dream of what it is, it is the truth mixed with imperfection, just as parallel lines cannot intersect in reality yet to our eyes the do eventually meet and this is the paradox of what we see as beautiful and perhaps the beginning of what is love.
