Philosophers Tapestries
Description: Denis Diderot: The more man ascends through the past, and the more he launches into the future, the greater he will be, and all these philosophers and ministers and truth-telling men who have fallen victims to the stupidity of nations, the atrocities of priests, the fury of tyrants, what consolation was left for them in death? This: That prejudice would pass, and that posterity would pour out the vial of ignominy upon their enemies. O Posterity! Holy and sacred stay of the unhappy and the oppressed; thou who art just, thou who art incorruptible, thou who findest the good man, who unmaskest the hypocrite, who breakest down the tyrant, may thy sure faith, thy consoling faith never, never abandon me!
Description: Baruch Spinoza quote: Philosophers conceive of the passions which harass us as vices into which men fall by their own fault, and, therefore, generally deride, bewail, or blame them, or execrate them, if they wish to seem unusually pious. And so they think they are doing something wonderful, and reaching the pinnacle of learning, when they are clever enough to bestow manifold praise on such human nature, as is nowhere to be found, and to make verbal attacks on that which, in fact, exists. For they conceive of men, not as they are, but as they themselves would like them to be.
Description: The exact origins of the cube are unknown, but according to myth, the angel Metatron created it out of his soul.

There are also geometric codes in flowers, snowflakes, DNA molecules, organic life forms and heavenly bodies.
Description: The philosophers stone in the middle which represents enlightenment, and perfection in alchemy.

The outer circles are: Copper (symbol embodies such characteristics as love, balance, beauty, and artistic creativity.), silver (associated with the moon, holds attributes of intuition, inner wisdom, and contemplation. ), gold (represents perfection in all matter, on any level) , iron (represents a need to temper primal urges), antimony (represents animal tendencies found in humankind – a wild nature in all of us) and tin (philosophically viewed as the breath of life.)
