You call a star a star, and say it is just a ball of matter moving on a mathematical course. But that is merely how you see it.

Rudolf Arnheim

At this young age I am already sold on the idea of the dog. One of God's absolutely greatest inventions and one that needs no more tinkering.

I am at peace sitting in silence with a dog.

John Tillotson
-
