I am SHADOW, and my dwelling is near to the. Catacombs of Ptolemais, and hard by those dim plains of Helusionwhich border upon the foul Charonian canal." And then did we, theseven, start from our seats in horror, and stand trembling, andshuddering, and aghast, for the tones in the voice of the shadow werenot the tones of any one being, but of a multitude of beings, and, varying in their cadences from syllable to syllable fell duskly uponour ears in the well-remembered and familiar accents of...

And before you know it, the object disappears, arguments evaporate; no culprit is discovered, the offense ceases to be an offense and becomes a matter of fate, like the toothache which cannot be blamed on anyone, and the only thing that's left is, once again, to bang the wall as hard as you can. Fyodor Dostoevsky
Love, if you love me, lie next to me. Be for me, like rain, the getting outof the tiredness, the fatuousness, the semi-lust of intentional indifference. Be wetwith a decent happiness. Robert Creeley
Do not let yourself be bothered by the inconsequential.

Salvador Dali
