from “Modern Love”

Into which state enters Love, the crowning sun:
Beneath whose light the shadow loses form.
We are the lords of life, and life is warm.

(George Meredith)

from “a man without a country”

The arts are not a way to make a living. They are a very human way of making life more bearable. Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven’s sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possible can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something.
