He that compares what he has done with what he has left undone, will feel the effect which must always follow the comparison of imagination with reality; he will look with contempt on his own unimportance, and wonder to what purpose he came into the world; he will repine that he shall leave behind him no evidence of his having been, that he has added nothing to the system of life, but has glided from youth to age among the crowd, without any effort for distinction. — Samuel Johnson

Who is to blame? The filth peddler, of course, but even more than this vulgar entertainer, the filth consumer, the public.

and cried for hours,
beat my fist against
the mirror until
the glass
ran together
with my tears. — Darshana Suresh
