        When you flip the switch in that attic, it doesen' matter 
      whether its been dark for ten minutes, ten years, or ten decades. 

      The light still illuminates the room and banishes the murkiness, 
       letting you see the things you couldn't see before. 

       It's never too late to take a moment to look. 
 - Sharon Salzberg -  

 "Everyone carries a room about inside him. This fact can even be 
  proved by means of the sense of hearing. If someone walks fast 
  and one pricks up one's ears and listens, say in the night, when 
  everything round about is quiet, one hears, for instance, the rattling 
  of a mirror not quite firmly fastened to the wall. 
 - Franz Kafka -  

Victor Pivovarov  

 Moral vision whose intense, meandering design 
 Seems lightened by a pure simplicity of feeling, 
 As in grief, or in the pathos of life 
 Cut off by loneliness, indifference or hate, 
 Because the most important thing is human happiness - 
 Not in the sense of private satisfaction, but of 
 Lives that realize themselves in ordinary terms 
 And with quiet inconsistencies that make them real. 
 - John Koethe -
