"Essayist, journalist, etc." Alex said while nodding. "...Can't remember what the quotes from, but it kept sticking my brain so I decided to get it out."
The full quote about 'he who fights monsters and the abyss' by Nietzsche was on his wall, along with 'Which way I fly is hell; myself am hell' by Milton. 'Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before.' by Poe... Detailed scientific drawings of a DNA double-helix, various chemical equations... If one knew how to look, it was a window into Alex's very being.
It beat those damn TVA propaganda posters by a long shot, but was also easy to see why Alex rarely let anyone in his room.
