"You the one with the lime?"
- Neil Gaiman, Anansi Boys
These words are not my own - they cannot possibly be - for they belong to those who read them. The self which I may reveal in these words is also mankind, and nothing can come between us. If there is anything amiss, then the fault is surely mind, and not man's.
The moon in me looks up at the moon.
The moon that looks,
Looks back at herself.
- Kanjiro Kawai "We Do Not Work Alone"
Now that I've worn out, I've worn out the world
I'm on my knees in fascination
Looking through the night
And the moons never seen me before
But I'm reflecting light
- Sam Phillips, Reflecting Light
"I dreamed we were there. The plane leapt the tropopause, the safe air, and attained the outer rim, the ozone, which was ragged and torn, patches of it threadbare as old cheesecloth, and that was frightening...
"But I saw something only I could see, because of my astonishing ability to see such things:
"Souls were rising, from the earth far below, souls of the dead, of people who had perished, from famine, from war, from the plague, and they floated up, like skydivers in reverse, limbs all akimbo, wheeling and spinning. And the souls of these departed joined hands, clasped ankles and formed a web, a great net of souls, and the souls were three-atom oxygen molecules, of the stuff of ozone, and the outer rim absorbed them, and was repaired.
"Nothing's lost forever. In this world, there is a kind of painful progress. Longing for what we've left behind and dreaming ahead.
At least I think that's so."
- Harper Pitt, Angels in America, Part Two: Perestroika
I know the things that I am afraid of
I'm not afraid to tell
And if we ever leave a legacy
It's that we loved each other well
Now we're talking about a difficult thing
Your eyes are getting wet
I took us for better and I took us for worse
And don't you ever forget it
- Indigo Girls, Power of Two
I went to the Sizzler and saw your face in the cheese toast.
