To take a photograph is to participate in another person's mortality$$$ vulnerability$$$ mutability. Precisely by slicing out this moment and freezing it$$$ all photographs testify to time's relentless melt.

The transformation of the heart is a wondrous thing$$$ no matter how you land there.

In my way of thinking$$$ anything is possible. Life is at the bottom of things and belief at the top$$$ while the creative impulse$$$ dwelling in the center$$$ informs all.

I knew he didn't love me$$$ but I adored him anyway.

I reflected on the fact that no matter how good I aspired to be$$$ I was never going to achieve perfection.

Please$$$ no matter how we advance in technology please don't abandon the book -- there is nothing in our material world more beautiful than a book.

Do not brood over your past mistakes and failures as this will only fill your mind with grief$$$ regret and depression. Do not repeat them in the future.

War is a kind of superstition$$$ the pageantry of arms and badges corrupts the imagination of men.

The splendors of the firmament of time<br>May be eclipsed$$$ but are extinguished not;<br>Like stars to their appointed height they climb<br>And death is a low mist which cannot blot<br>The brightness it may veil.

Poetry is the record of the best and happiest moments of the happiest and best minds.
