We prefer Shakespearean Sonnets, reflections on Space and Time, and posts along the lines of:

My greatest trouble is getting the curtain up and down. T. S. Eliot

Poetry may make us from time to time a little more aware of the deeper, unnamed feelings which form the substratum of our being, to which we rarely penetrate; for our lives are mostly a constant evasion of ourselves. T. S. Eliot

It is our continuing goal to foster the world's greatest converstation.

It was a high counsel that I once heard given to a young person, Always do what you are afraid to do. -- Ralph Waldo Emerson

What does love look like? It has the hands to help others. It has the feet to hasten to the poor and needy. It has eyes to see misery and want. It has the ears to hear the sighs and sorrows of men. That is what love looks like. St. Augustine 354-430, Numidian-born Bishop of Hippo, Theologian
