Hear and attend and listen; for this is what befell and be-happened and became and was, o my best beloved, when the tame animals were wild. the dog was wild, and the horse was wild, and the cow was wild, and the sheep was wild, and the pig was wild -as wild as wild could be - and they walked in the wet wild woods by their wild lones. but the wildest of all the wild animals was the cat. he walked by himself and all places were alike to him

What is there in places empty of matter? and whence is it that the sun and planets gravitate toward one another without dense matter between them? whence is it that nature doth nothing in vain? and whence arises all that order and beauty which we see in the world? to what end are comets? and whence is it that planets move all one and the same way in orbs concentrick, while comets move all manner of ways in orbs very excentrick? and what hinders the fixed stars from falling upon one another?

Whenever the white man treats the indian as they treat each other then we shall have no more wars. we shall be all alike - brothers of one father and mother, with one sky above us and one country around us and one government for all. then the great spirit chief who rules above will smile upon this land and send rain to wash out the bloody spots made by brothers' hands upon the face of the earth. for this time the indian race is waiting and praying. i hope no more groans of wounded men and women will ever go to the ear of the great spirit chief above, and that all people may be one people.

She always did like tales of adventure-stories full of brightness and darkness. she could tell you the names of all king arthur's knights, and she knew everything about beowulf and grendel, the ancient gods and the not-quite-so-ancient heroes. she liked pirate stories, too, but most of all she loved books that had at least a knight or a dragon or a fairy in them. she was always on the dragon's side by the way.

We want freedom. we want freedom from the constraints of the cycles of the sun and the moon. we want freedom from drought and weather, freedom from the movement of game, the growth of plants, freedom from control from mendacious popes and kings, freedom from ideology, freedom from want. this idea of freeing ourselves has become the compass of the human journey.
