Most persons think that a state in order to be happy ought to be large; but even if they are right, they have no idea of what is a large and what a small state....

Aristotle

That is true.

That's one of the troubles of photography; the implication that what you have in that photograph is the way it is, and of course a year later that's not the way it is.
