“It is easy to forget that you live in the sky - not beneath it, but within it. Our atmosphere is an enormous ocean, and you inhabit it. This ocean is made up of the gases of air rather than liquid water, but it is as much of an ocean as the Atlantic or the Pacific. You may think of yourself as living on the ground, but all that means is that you are a creature of the ocean bed. You still inhabit the atmosphere like a sea creature does the water.”
Gavin Pretor-Pinney, A Cloud a Day

Shirley Ann Grau
“I’ve always liked to drive alone at night. There is a sentimental brightness to things—it’s a good deal like being drunk. I always see the world perfectly then, see it in all its great pathetic clarity. I become invincible, beyond life and death. With the hum of wheels under me, I can love the human race, as I never can at any other time. I can think great cloudy thoughts, and tremble with the power of life surging in me. I resolve then to have a dozen children and live forever. It seems possible.”
Shirley Ann Grau

A.E. Housman
“It is no gift I tender,
A loan is all I can;
But do not scorn the lender;
Man gets no more from man.

Oh, mortal man may borrow
What mortal man can lend;
And ‘twill not end to-morrow,
Though sure enough ‘twill end.

If death and time are stronger,
A love may yet be strong;
The world will last for longer,
But this will last for long.”
A.E. Housman

“Зло 19-го века было злом, еще знавшим о своей противоположности добру. Зло же 20-го века этой противоположности не знает. Типичные люди 20-го века мнят себя, по Ницше, «по ту сторону добра и зла». Это совсем особые люди, бесскорбные и не способные к раскаянию. Думается, что их «великие дела», даже если бы они и породили какие-нибудь положительные результаты, никогда не преобразятся в памяти «благодарного» потомства в светлые подвиги. А впрочем, как знать? Еще неизвестно, какими людьми будут наши потомки.”
Федор Степун, Бывшее и несбывшееся

Frank O'Hara
“Song "

I am stuck in traffic in a taxicab
which is typical
and not just of modern life

mud clambers up the trellis of my nerves
must lovers of Eros end up with Venus
muss es sein? es muss nicht sein, I tell you

how I hate disease, it’s like worrying
that comes true
and it simply must not be able to happen

in a world where you are possible
my love
nothing can go wrong for us, tell me”
Frank O'Hara, The Collected Poems of Frank O'Hara
