My reviews

Let us look for secret things
somewhere in the world,
on the blue shore of silence
or where the storm has passed,
rampaging like a train.
There the faint signs are left,
coins of time and water,
debris, celestrial ash
and the irreplaceable rapture
of sharing in the labour
of solitude and the sand.

--Pablo Neruda

An Englishman in New France.

"I believe in aristocracy — if that is the right word and if a democrat may use it. Not an aristocracy of power, based on rank and influence, but an aristocracy of the sensitive, the considerate, and the plucky. Its members are to be found in all nations and all classes, and through the ages, and there is a secret understanding between them when they meet. They represent the true human tradition, the one permanent victory of our queer race over cruelty and chaos. Thousands of them perish in obscurity, a few are great names. They are sensitive for others as well as themselves, they are considerate without being fussy, their pluck is not swankiness but the power to endure, and they can take a joke."

— E. M. Forster

Friending policy, since everyone seems to have one these days: feel free to friend me; please leave a comment saying who you and how you found me. If they do this, I tend to friend people back. If you don't do this, I *will not friend you back*.

I've now started to use comment notification. Who'd'a thunk it.
