Today's Stichomancy for Christian Bale

The first excerpt represents the past or something you must release, and is drawn from The Commission in Lunacy by Honore de Balzac:

at Bologna, the old bricks and old time-eaten stones of this house persistently preserve their centre of gravity.

At every season of the year the solid piers of the ground floor have the yellow tone and the imperceptible sweating surface that moisture gives to stone.

The iron railings look just like the door to an old family

The third excerpt represents the future or something you must embrace, and is drawn from Meno by Plato:

MENO: Surely.

SOCRATES: And conversely, may not the art of which neither teachers nor disciples exist be assumed to be incapable of being taught?

MENO: True; but do you think that there are no teachers of virtue?

SOCRATES: I have certainly often enquired whether there were any, and taken great pains to find them, and have never succeeded; and many have assisted me in the search, and they were the persons whom I thought the
