| There is music in the beauty, and the silent note which Cupid strikes, far sweeter than the sound of an instrument; for there is music wherever there is harmony, order, or proportion; and thus far we may maintain the music of the spheres. |

| Whoever is not in the possession of leisure can hardly be said to possess independence. They talk of the dignity of work. Bosh. True work is the necessity of poor humanity’s earthly condition. The dignity is in leisure. Besides, 99 hundredths of all the work done in the world is either foolish and unnecessary, or harmful and wicked. |
| ~ Herman Melville (1819–1891), U.S. author. letter, Sept. 5, 1877, to his cousin, Catherine Gansevoort Lansing. Correspondence, vol. 14, The Writings of Herman Melville, ed. Lynn Horth (1993). Melville was working in the customs service. ~ |

| Whilst it must be flattering to both nations [Great Britain and U.S.] to contemplate the progress of covering with their posterity and their language a greater space on the earth than any other language, it is obvious that a few years will tranfer the ascendency to the Unites States . . . |

| Quote of the moment |
| We find that between the past and the future there is an extremely thin line - somthing that cannot really withstand analysis. Past and future exist in relation to the present. But if the present cannot be posited, how can past and future be posited? This is a demonstration of dependent origination. |
| ~ The Path to Tranquility, March 15, 14th Dalai Lama ~ |
