I accept it gratefully without looking beyond it. I completely forget my physical suffering and all the unpleasantness of my present condition and I think only of the joy of seeing the sun rise once more and of being able to work a little bit, even under difficult conditions. Henri Matisse
And in prayer this real I struggles to speak, for once from his being, and to address, for once, not the other actors, but--what shall I call Him? the Author, for He invented us all? The Producer, for He controls all? Or the Audience, for He watches, and will judge the performance?

And the seasons they go'round and'round. And the painted ponies go up and down. We're captive on the carousel of time. We can't return we can only look behind. From where we came. And go round and round and round. In the circle game Joni Mitchell
I think I have many spenglerian moods about the country, and that some day people will look back and think 'this was a really goofy, unadmirable stupid time. Dick Cavett
