As an adult, you must rediscover the moving power of your life!

We

It is in love that we are made;
In love we disappear.

My Mum

Mum

I see your picture

as though it were a mirror 

but there's no part of you 

outside the frame 

except the change that you gave to me: 

this will never come again. 

You are gone 

and I am with you: 

this will never come again.

 — Peter Hammill 'Again'

Look at the sky, but it's empty now; 

look at the sea, it holds nothing but despair. 

I raise my eyes, but my head stays bowed... 

I look to my side, but you're not there. 

And I can't get you out of my mind, 

no, no, no, no, I just can't get you from my mind.

 — Peter Hammill 'The Shingle Song'


I can't get used to living here,
While my heart is broke, my tears I cried for you.
But all I got is a photograph
And I realise you're not coming back anymore.
 — Richard Starkey 'Photograph'

so this shall be my Christmas star 

and I will travel to your heart: 

the manger where the real things are.

All persons living and dead are purely coincidental.

All that happens is that the destruction of human beings — unless they're Americans — is called collateral damage.
 — Harold Pinter

Butt Me No Butts

Just Add Salt

It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes.

He may be an athlete, but he's quite bright.

'Lay Down' Sally Robbins Anagram

A Nation Of Customers

To found a great empire for the sole purpose of raising up a people of customers may at first sight appear a project fit only for a nation of shopkeepers. It is, however, a project altogether unfit for a nation of shopkeepers; but extremely fit for a nation whose government is influenced by shopkeepers.

 —Adam Smith 'The Wealth of Nations'
