It would be good to live in a perpetual state of leave-taking, never to go nor to stay, but to remain suspended in that golden emotion of love and longing; to be loved without satiety.
John SteinbeckI have owed you this letter for a very long time-but my fingers have avoided the pencil as though it were an old and poisoned tool.
John SteinbeckWherever theyโs a fight so hungry people can eat, Iโll be there. Wherever theyโs a cop beatinโ up a guy, Iโll be there. If Casy knowed, why, Iโll be in the way guys yell when theyโre mad anโโIโll be in the way kids laugh when theyโre hungry nโ they know supperโs ready. Anโ when our folks eat the stuff they raise anโ live in the houses they buildโwhy, Iโll be there.
John SteinbeckSir, this is a unique dog. He does not live by tooth or fang. He respects the right of cats to be cats although he doesn't admire them. He turns his steps rather than disturb an earnest caterpillar. His greatest fear is that someone will point out a rabbit and suggest that he chase it. This is a dog of peace and tranquility.
