Fix Reason Firmly In Her Seat


"Shake off all the fears of servile prejudices, under which weak minds are servilely crouched. Fix reason firmly in her seat, and call on her tribunal for every fact, every opinion. Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason than that of blindfolded fear. "
 Thomas Jefferson

The Rainbow Connection

I've heard it too many times to ignore it.
It's something that I'm supposed to be.
Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection.
The lovers, the dreamers and me.

Window to Window



I have stretched ropes from steeple to steeple; garlands from window to window:
 golden chains from star to star, and I dance.

They are Nations

The animal shall not be measured by man.
 In a world older and more 
complete than ours, they move finished and complete, gifted with 
extension of the senses we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear.
 They are not brethren; they are not underlings;
 they are other nations, caught with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow 
prisoners of the splendor and travail of the earth. 

~Henry Beston, The 
Outermost House, 1928
