We go around and around in the night and are consumed by fire.
This latin palindrome was attributed to the orator Sidonius Apollinaire, and reads identically forwards or backwards.
"The phrase that reverses itself, constructed letter by letter like a labyrinth, perfectly represents the form and content of perdition. We have not sought the formula by turning the world upside down in books, but by wandering around, together with four or five rather disreputable persons."
- Guy Debord,
(in Oeuvres Cinematographiques completes, Gallimard, Paris, 1994).
