Entry 148

Romance often begins by a splashing waterfall and ends over a leaky sink.
Unknown

I think every big town should contain artificial waterfalls that people can descend in very fragile canoes, and they should contain bathing pools full of mechanical sharks. Any person found advocating a preventive war should be condemned to two hours.

Bertrand Russell


What would the world be, once bereft of wet and wildness? Let them be left, O let them be left, wildness and wet; Long live the weeds and the wilderness yet.
Gerald Manley Hopkins

Although it was wonderful to see all that water tumbling down, it would be even more wonderful to see all that water tumbling up.
Mark Twain
