something to think about...

 Thanks to Lauriel for texting me this quote from Tom Hardy, a British actor who makes movies that I don't ever see, but now maybe I will? Of course by now you realize that I have no problem being alone. And yes, it is addictive. In a good way.

searching, searching...

What did we do before the search engine? Go to the library,
I suspect. In any event, I've spent several hours tracking down
a quote that I appreciated at the Maira Kalman exhibit at
the Jewish Museum. I don't know why it hit me, but it did.
All I wrote down was "Flaubert" and "as if the fullness of
the soul" and finally, this is what I have found. From our
gal, Madame Bovary:

As if the fullness of the soul did not sometimes overflow
in the emptiest metaphors, since no one can give an
exact measure of his needs, or his thoughts or his sorrows.

So there, it was worth it, no?
