Life is what we make of it. Travel is the traveler. What we see isn't what we see but what we are.
Fernando PessoaWhen one of my Japanese teacups is broken, I imagine that the real cause was not the careless hand of a maid but the anxieties of the figures inhabiting the curves of that porcelain. Their grim decision to commit suicide doesn't shock me: they used the maid as one of us might use a gun.
