Patience is being friends with Time.

Is it a form of social play that underneath the words people say, there is a different conversation going on?

Because I had goodwill for all, I thought all were my friends. And then I learned of treachery, that some preferred my end. It wasn't the goodwill I felt that made someone a friend. What handy day, the one I learned the meaning of the word. How good to know my enemies (though their reasons are absurd!)

My primary motivation for writing is to communicate my perceptions and insights into the human condition, in a way that may provide understanding, comfort, and company to others.

Everything solid was first an idea.

We can have a World War, I see absolutely no reason why we shouldn't have a World Party.

Poetry is our heart, our spirit, our soul. Call it whatever; without it, everything else is nothing but hardware.
