“Morning, noon & bloody night,

FUCK IT FUCK IT FUCK IT FUCK IT”
― Philip Larkin: Letters to Monica

K. Chesterton (1909)”

From morn to night, my friend.”

“Man's heart, away from nature, becomes hard; [the Lakota] knew that lack of respect for growing, living things soon led to lack of respect for humans too. —LUTHER STANDING BEAR (c. 1868–1939)”

“Second hand books are wild books, homeless books; they have come together in vast flocks of variegated feather, and have a charm which the domesticated volumes of the library lack.”
