I used to be such a militant city-ist, but more and more Ive seen forests and nature and oceans, and I dont know any more if this is the awesomest way to live. – Regina Spektor
From too much love of living, From hope and fear set free, We thank with brief thanksgiving Whatever gods may be That no life lives for ever That dead men rise up never That even the weariest river Winds somewhere safe to sea. – Algernon Charles Swinburne
