Death-knell of tyrants!
Sound of trump, despots crumple:
"Mountains, fall on us!"
"People without hope not only don't write novels, but what is more to the point, they don't read them.
They don't take long looks at anything, because they lack the courage.
The way to despair is to refuse to have any kind of experience, and the novel, of course, is a way to have experience."
-Flannery O'Connor

"In spite of much that militates against quietness there are people who still read books. They are the people who keep me going."

Mountains, fall on us
Soon will come snows of winter
Turning our slopes white
Love prevails.

Change is not a process for the impatient.
