... I think I found it, in case you want it back.



Union Square, San Francisco, California

I saw somebody reading The Sun Also Rises on the subway today, and here's what occurred to me: given that Hemingway once said that happiness in intelligent people is the rarest thing he knows, don't you think it's ironic that most of his book are so damn depressing?

I mean by and large people seek to preserve things that are valuable and rare, rather than destroy them....

Precious and fragile things
Need special handling
My god what have we done to you?
