I like the old wisdom--puns, riddles, spells, proverbs.
As a child I was middle-aged and cautious compared to my impulsive father.
Style disdains comfort and is always ready to sacrifice virtue.
The real reality is always just around the corner.
The cues that arouse desire are changed by Fashion, but feel like the proddings of Nature.
Small successes are still successes; great failures are still failures.
