It is up to my spirit to find the truth. but how? grave uncertainty, each time the spirit feels beyond its own comprehension; whenit, the explorer, is altogether to obscure land that it must search and where all its baggage is of no use. to search? that is not all: to create.

More From Marcel Proust

We arrive with our...'baggage' and for a while they're brilliant, they're 'baggage handlers.' we say, 'where's your baggage?' they deny all knowledge of it...'they're in love'...they have none. then...just as you're relaxing...a great big juggernaut arrives...with their baggage. it got held up. one of the greatest myths men have about women is that we overpack.

He who cannot find time to consult his bible will one day find he has time to be sick; he who has no time to pray must find time to die; he who can find no time to reflect is most likely to find time to sin; he who cannot find time for repentance will find an eternity in which repentance will be of no avail; he who cannot find time to work for others may find an eternity in which to suffer for himself.

No, my secrets are of the grave and must be kept. and this is how i sometimes think of myself, as a great explorer who has discovered some extraordinary land from which he can never return to give his knowledge to the world: but the name of this land is hell.
Thinking Land Names
Land taxes is the thing. they got so high that there is no chance to make anything. not only land but all property tax. you see in the old days, why the only thing they knew how to tax was land, or a house. well, that condition went along for quite awhile, so even today the whole country tries to run its revenue on taxes on land. they never ask if the land makes anything. "it's land ain't it? well tax it then."

This was mahatma gandhi’s idea, moving from ownership to relationship—seeing that land does not belong to us. we belong to the land. we are not the owners of the land. we are the friends of the land, like friends of the earth. the fundamental shift is in this consciousness that land does not belong to us, we belong to the land.

Poets are the hierophants of an unapprehended inspiration; the mirrors of the gigantic shadows which futurity casts upon the present; the words which express what they understand not; the trumpets which sing to battle, and feel not what they inspire; the influence which is moved not, but moves. poets are the unacknowledged legislators of the world.

I try to see the whole woman,' eddie said to hannah. 'of course i recognize that she's old, but there are photographs - or the equivalent of photographs in one's imagination of anyone's life. a whole life, i mean. i can picture her when she was much younger than i am - because there are always gestures and expressions that are ingrained, ageless. an old woman doesn't see herself as an old woman, and neither do i. i try to see her her whole life in her. there's something so moving about someone's whole life.
