"The world breaks every one and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry."
~ Ernest Hemingway, A Farewell To Arms



"Our lives disconnect and reconnect, we move on, and later we may touch one another, again bounce away. This is the felt shape of a human life, neither simply linear nor wholly disjunctive nor endlessly bifurcating, but rather this bouncey sequence of bumping into's and tumblings apart."
~ Salman Rushdie, The Ground Beneath Her Feet

There Is A Crack In Everything...



“Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering There is a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in…”



"There is a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in…”
  “You can add up the parts
But you won't have the sum
You can strike up the march
There is no drum
Every heart, every heart
To love will come
But like a refugee…”








 “Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack, a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in…”




**words by Leonard Cohen
