What should Swansea become? It should, I think, generate its own species and become what it is now, a town where art is alive. — Dylan Thomas

Gladness is intoxicating. I fire my gun and an unforgettable echo answers from crag to crag, floats out over the sea and rings in some sleepless helmsman's ears. What am I glad about?

It is a masterpiece,' said Jules Fougler. 'I hope you will prove yourself worthy of it, Peter.
