We shall not cease from exploration, and the end of all our exploring will be
to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time.
T. S. Eliot

 I like a view but I like to sit with my back turned to it.
-Gertrude Stein

There is no absolute point of view from which real and ideal can be finally separated and labelled.
-T. S. Eliot

As a means of contrast with the sublime, the grotesque is, in our view, the richest source that nature can offer.
-Victor Hugo

  9. Sometimes, it's best to focus on the view outside, lest the one inside consume you. I like the Hugo quote too. He speaks of his gentleman of Notre Dame, no doubt.

We should take care not to make the intellect our god; it has, of course, powerful muscles, but no personality. Al Einstein said that.
Thanks for stopping by, and leaving a piece of your mind. I said that.
