i was so lucky to be born white in america in the mid-twentieth century --- i recognize that fact and, at the same time, i hate the idea of white privilege --- i will be glad when we have all fukd each other enough that we're all shades of tan and "race" doesn't matter anymore

Each of us is all the sums he has not counted: subtract us into nakedness and night again, and you shall see begin in Crete four thousand years ago the love that ended yesterday in Texas.
The seed of our destruction will blossom in the desert, the alexin of our cure grows by a mountain rock, and our lives are haunted by a Georgia slattern, because a London cutpurse went unhung. Each moment is the fruit of forty thousand years. The minute-winning days, like flies, buzz home to death, and every moment is a window on all time.
john northbrooke, c. 1570
