With a new baby, you have a bad day now and again because you're particularly tired, but most of the time, you're fine.

I have to get three pages done every day, and there's usually a point about 150 pages in where everything falls apart, where all the plans are for naught.

When you wander, as you often delight to do, you wander indeed, and give never such satisfaction as the curious time requires.

Rich soils are often to be weeded.
