Everything does come from nature. that's where you get new ideas. just draw the landscape. i felt doing it with a bit of burnt wood was also good because i was drawing burnt wood with a piece of wood. i wanted to do black and white. after using color, i thought black and white would be good. you can have color in black and white. there is color in them, actually.

Some of the beliefs and legends bequethed to us by antquity are so universally and firmly established that we have become accustomed to consider them as being almost as ancient as humanity itself. nevertheless we are tempted to inquire how far the fact that some of these beliefs and legends have so many features in common is due to chance, and wether the similarity between them may not point to the exestience of an ancient, totally unknown and unsuspected civilization of which all other traces have disappeared.
Civilization America Missing
When the spirit came to moses, the plagues came upon egypt, and he had power to destroy men's lives; when the spirit came upon elijah, fire came down from heaven; when the spirit came upon gideon, no man could stand before him; and when it came upon joshua, he moved around the city of jericho and the whole city fell into his hands; but when the spirit came upon the son of man, he gave his life; he healed the broken-hearted.

Not every legend is a myth, some are flesh and blood. some legends walk among us, but they aren’t born, they’re built. legends are made from iron & sweat, mind and muscle, blood and vision and victory. legends are champions, they grow, they win, they conquer. there’s a legend behind every legacy, there’s a blueprint behind every legend.

Some like them hot,some like them cold. some like them when they're not to darn old some like them fat,some like them lean. some like them only at sweet sixteen. some like them dark,some like them light. some like them in the park,late at night. some like them fickle,some like them true, but the time i like them is when they're like you

O mistress mine, where are you roaming? o, stay and hear; your true love's coming, that can sing both high and low: trip no further, pretty sweeting; journeys end in lovers meeting, every wise man's son doth know. what is love? 'tis not hereafter; present mirth hath present laughter; what's to come is still unsure: in delay there lies not plenty; then, come kiss me, sweet and twenty, youth's a stuff will not endure.
