The beauty of Delicate Arch explains nothing, for each thing in its way, when true to its own character, is equally beautiful. ~ "Our job is to record, each in his own way, this world of light and shadow and time that will never come again exactly as it is today." ~ They will complain of physical hardship, these sons of the pioneers. Not for long; once they rediscover the pleasure of actually operating their own limbs and senses in a varied, spontaneous, voluntary style, they will complain instead of crawling back into a car; they may even object to returning to desk and office and that dry wall box on Mossy Brook Circle. The fires of revolt may be kindled - which means hope for us all. ~ My sole literary ambition is to write one good novel, then retire to my hut in the desert, assume the lotus position, compose my mind and senses, and sink into meditation, contemplating my novel. ~ Books are like eggs--best when fresh. ~
