“So take photographs of everything:
ordinary things,
simple things,
between the door
and by the window things.
Light-ridden and shadow-heavy things.
Forever things.
Fleeting things.
Take photographs of everything.”
― All Along You Were Blooming: Thoughts for Boundless Living

“There is talk of a new astrologer [Nicolaus Copernicus] who wants to prove that the earth moves and goes around instead of the sky, the sun, the moon, just as if somebody were moving in a carriage or ship might hold that he was sitting still and at rest while the earth and the trees walked and moved. But that is how things are nowadays: when a man wishes to be clever he must . . . invent something special, and the way he does it must needs be the best! The fool wants to turn the whole art of astronomy upside-down. However, as Holy Scripture tells us, so did Joshua bid the sun to stand still and not the earth.
