[

“As long as the mind is receptive, little is lost. It takes some preparation.”

“Memory bulges from the inside, out. Glance and note it before it surceeds into the infinite bottom.”

“What we know, what we do, what we see, what others put on us and how that is sifted, at first erotically and then with self-interested purpose and then, finally, wisdom and meaning.”

“Up the periscope and head on the swivel!”

“Our dopey sailor pal finally makes a comment.”

“Remember that there is a brain but then there are many forces that want to be your brain and they are jostling for position and credibility. Don’t let them in! Trace them to their origins and shame them. Laugh at what they pose as so serious and dreadful in life.”

“Sit by the noisy tree with the wonderful scent and remember that all things connect.”

“Composed along a latitude few have traveled. There are dangers but few guns.”

“The sun is full of murk at that line of ascent. It’s dirty and cold but gives life just the same. It’s all part of the dexterity of mind. Oh, and here are a list of places I have lived in, next to criminals and drug addicts if that helps.”

“They can be a wicked lot in that village.”

“Yes sir. You never know. Life is unexpected. We thought we’d come out someplace else.”
