Verily, men do foolish things thoughtlessly, knowing not why; but no woman doeth aught without a reason.

There is indeed no such thing in life as absolute darkness; one's eyes revolt and hasten to fill the vacuum by floating in sparks, dream patterns, figures whimsical and figures grotesque, shifting and clad in complementary colors, to appease the indignant cups and rods of the retina.

There is work that is work and there is play that is play; there is play that is work and work that is play. And in only one of these lies happiness.
