My Life
Life is like walking through Paradise with peas in your shoes.
CHARLES EDWARD JERNINGHAM, The Maxims of Marmaduke
Life is for each man a solitary cell whose walls are mirrors.
EUGENE O'NEILL, Lazarus Laughed
Live on, survive, for the earth gives forth wonders. It may swallow your heart, but the wonders keep on coming. You stand before them bareheaded, shriven. What is expected of you is attention.
