With rope-ladders learned I to reach many a window, with nimble legs did I climb high masts: to sit on high masts of perception seemed to me no small bliss; To flicker like small flames on high masts: a small light, certainly, but a great comfort to cast-away sailors and shipwrecked ones!

I will stipulate to having both French sea salt and a big bottle of extra virgin in my kitchen. And while the presence of both might go some small distance in pigeonholing me demographically, neither one of them makes me a good person. They are mute and useless indicators of the content of my character. — David Rakoff

I am sure of nothing so little as my own intentions. — Lord Byron

The only people who ever get any place interesting are the people who get lost. That's why the planets are so much better company than the stars - they keep wandering back and forth across the sky and you never know where you're going to find them. — Henry David Thoreau

Slavish fear brings not back the backslider to God, but the sweet wooings of love allure him to Jesus' bosom. — Charles Haddon Spurgeon
