Every sentence he manages to utter scatters its component parts like pond water from a verb chasing its own tail Picture Quote #1

To grow old is to lose everything. Aging, everybody knows it. Even when we are young, we glimpse it sometimes, and nod our heads when a grandfather dies. Then we row for years on the midsummer pond, ignorant and content Picture Quote #1

Did you ever look through a microscope at a drop of pond water? You see plenty of love there. All the amoebae getting married. I presume they think it very exciting and important. We don’t Picture Quote #1
