The Road / Cormac McCarthy

Just remember that the things you put into your head are there forever, he said. You might want to think about that.
You forget some things, don't you?
Yes. You forget what you want to remember and you remember what you want to forget.
Cormac McCarthy, The Road
"To live a creative life we must lose our fear of being wrong." Joseph Chilton Pearce

"If you press me to tell why I loved him, I feel that this cannot be expressed,
except by answering: Because it was he, because it was I."
Michel de Montaigne, "Of Friendship"

your mailbox

     In regard to the poems I left with you; will you be so kind as to return them to me at my new address? And without bothering to coment upon them if you should find that embarrassing--for it was the human situation and not the literary one that motivated my phone call and visit.
    William Carlos Williams, Paterson
