To our senses, the elements are four and have ever been, and will ever be for they are the elements of life, of poetry, and of perception, the four Great Ones, the Four Roots, the First Four of Fire and the Wet, Earth and the wide Air of the World. To find the other many elements, you must go to the laboratory and hunt them down. But the four we have always with us, they are our world. Or rather, they have us with them.

William ShatnerBeing a mother is like trying to hold a wolf by the ears,โ Gram said. โIf you have three or four โor more โ chickabiddies, youโre dancing on a hot griddle all the time.
