	something I noticed in GU novel 4, where it referenced a fragment of the Epitaph of Twilight: It is impossible to alter the system The chance to do so is long since past Since we had precious little time left We took the wrong path Now we realize: We should not try to alter the system But change as individuals Isn't that a lot like the Matrix scene with bending the spoon? Quote: Boy: Do not try and bend the spoon. That's impossible. Instead only try to realize the truth. Neo: What truth? Boy: There is no spoon. Neo: There is no spoon? Boy: Then you'll see that it is not the spoon that bends, it is only yourself.

	hmmm that text is different compared to the original. Translation issues? Or was there never an epitaph of twilight? ********

	Well, it was published by Tokyopop... That volume had a ton of talk about Buddhism at the end too...

	The inconsistencies in the Epitaph of Twilight translations can be explained with the series itself, but it's really just poor translating and research.
