"When you begin to think outside the box, you often become some other "leaders" lousy follower. That usually costs something" (Andy Rayner)

"Our guardian angels are bored." (Mike Foster)

It's where I feel I'm at these days. “In the second half of life, it is good just to be a part of the general dance. We do not have to stand out, make defining moves, or be better than anyone else on the dance floor. Life is more participatory than assertive, and there is no need for strong or further self-definition” (Falling Upward. Richard Rohr.120).

“If writing is put on to parchment it can last for a thousand years, but how long will printing something on paper last? At the most a paper book could last for two hundred years.”


- Johannes Trithemius, abbot of Sponheim, denounced printed books in 1492.
