Thanatos

Thanatos: Thanatos is the Greek daemon of death, twin of the more popular daemon of sleep: Hypnos. Thantos often represents the urge to die.

Our life-style contains more thanatos than eros, for egotism, exploitation, deception, obsession and addiction have more place in us than eroticism, joy, generosity and spontaneity.
