i've been sitting here cleaning up some drawings, which is a fairly mindless activity, and watching the far horizons, a 1955 production that is, quite possibly, among the ten most dreadful movies of all time----it's the story of the lewis and clark expedition---with fred mcmurray as meriwether lewis, charlton heston as william clark, and donna reed as . . . sacajawea----it's all a little bizarre

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
