Quote of the Month
I should have told them at once that I was a transcendentalist. That would have been the shortest way of telling them that they would not understand my explanations.

Earth's the right place for love:
I don't know where it's likely to go better.
I'd like to go by climbing a birch tree
And climb black branches up a snow-white trunk
Toward heaven, till the tree could bear no more,
But dipped its top and set me down again.
That would be good both going and coming back.
One could do worse than be a swinger of birches.
