| Introduction | I use my blogs as commonplace books, storehouses of memorabilia. In this sense commonplace does not mean trite, but goes back to its Latin root, meaning a point with general application. Shephanim is a collection of commonplaces in the strict sense, while Sarregouset is more of a clearinghouse. I find each post worthy of remembering, and maybe you will too. |
| Interests | I would that I might with the minstrels sing and stir the unseen with a throbbing string. I would be with the mariners of the deep that cut their slender planks on mountains steep and voyage upon a vague and wandering quest, for some have passed beyond the fabled West. |
| Favorite movies | Nothing is more disastrous than the view that the cinema can and should replace popular written fiction. The elements which it excludes are precisely those which give the untrained mind its only access to the imaginative world. There is death in the camera. |
| Favorite music | Because music's power is inexpressible, it seems to carry a larger danger in that it has the power to arouse the deepest emotions in people who come together to listen to it and discover that it is their fate to belong to each other. Do you not agree? |
| Favorite books | How can I have forgotten? It was about a cup and a sword and a tree and a green hill. I know that much. |
If you could peer far enough into the night sky, you'd see a star in any direction you looked. When would you sleep?
At night.
