Hodge looked alarmed. "I - I - I had a very filling breakfast," he stammered. "I mean lunch. A filling lunch. I couldn't possibly eat - "

But of the loved, revered, and honoured head, thou canst not turn one hair to thy dread purposes, or make one feature odious.

I hope for vibrant love, the impossible, the chimerical.
I dread knowing precisely my own limitations. — Rene Magritte
