The french are a smallish, monkey-looking bunch and not dressed any better, on average, than the citizens of baltimore. true, you can sit outside in paris and drink little cups of coffee, but why this is more stylish than sitting inside and drinking large glasses of whiskey i don't know.

When you sit in a café, with a lot of music in the background and a lot of projects in your head, you're not really drinking your coffee or your tea. you're drinking your projects, you're drinking your worries. you are not real, and the coffee is not real either. your coffee can only reveal itself to you as a reality when you go back to your self and produce your true presence, freeing yourself from the past, the future, and from your worries. when you are real, the tea also becomes real and the encounter between you and the tea is real. this is genuine tea drinking.

Every time i look down on this timeless town whether blue or gray be her skies. whether loud be her cheers or soft be her tears, more and more do i realize: i love paris in the springtime. i love paris in the fall. i love paris in the winter when it drizzles, i love paris in the summer when it sizzles. i love paris every moment, every moment of the year. i love paris, why, oh why do i love paris? because my love is near.

The advantages of whiskey over dogs are legion. whiskey does not need to be periodically wormed, it does not need to be fed, it never requires a special kennel, it has no toenails to be clipped or coat to be stripped. whiskey sits quietly in its special nook until you want it. true, whiskey has a nasty habit of running out, but then so does a dog.

Creatures are cups. the sciences and the arts and all branches of knowledge are inscriptions around the outside of the cups. when a cup shatters, the writing can no longer be read. the wine's the thing! the wine that's held in the mold of these physical cups. drink the wine and know what lasts and what to love. the man who truly asks must be sure of two things: one, that he's mistaken in what he's doing or thinking now. and two, that there is a wisdom he doesn't know yet. asking is half of knowing.

My grandma ricky - that's where i got classic look from. she was the most stylish person ever. she had her own clothing store and even her furniture was stylish. i got my "flashy, but classy" motto from her, too. whenever she walked in the room, she was always the most stylish person in the room.

The presence of a grandparent confirms that parents were, indeed, little once, too, and that people who are little can grow to be big, can become parents, and one day even have grandchildren of their own. so often we think of grandparents as belonging to the past; but in this important way, grandparents, for young children, belong to the future.
