Ålesund

But I turned and walked 

Away from all the fun

And back into the black 

Seaside night of Alesund

In the Gray Wood By the River

Somewhere in the gray wood by the river is the huntsman and in the brooming corn and in the castellated press of cities. His work lies all wheres and his hounds tire not. I have seen them in a dream, slaverous and wild and their eyes crazed with ravening for souls in this world. Fly them. 

          ~ Cormac McCarthy, Suttree.

Backwards in Time

"You walk through a series of arches, so to speak, and then, presently, at the end of a corridor, a door opens and you see backward through time, and you feel the flow of time, and realize you are only part of a great nameless procession."

                                 ~John Huston

The Man Bill Murray

"I bet Mafia kids get bummed when they find out the tooth fairy doesn't take other people's teeth or when they find out there's no horse-head fairy at all."

                                                                 ~ Bill Murray

Trees and Hermann Hesse

So the tree rustles in the evening, when we stand uneasy before our own childish thoughts: Trees have long thoughts, long-breathing and restful, just as they have longer lives than ours. They are wiser than we are, as long as we do not listen to them."

~ Herman Hesse
