Bio
"Footfalls echo in the memory/ Down the passage we did not take/ Towards the door we never opened/ Into the rose-garden" -T.S. Eliot, in my favorite quote of all time.

"If you haven't the strength to impose your own terms upon life, you must accept the terms it offers you."-T.S. Eliot

"Such possibilists are said to inhabit a more delicate medium, a hazy medium of mist, fantasy, daydreams, and the subjunctive mood. Children who show this tendency are dealt with firmly and warned that such persons are cranks, dreamers, weaklings, know-it-alls, or troublemakers." -Musil

"All social rules and all relations between individuals are eroded by a cash economy, avarice drags Pluto himself out of the bowels of the earth." -Marx

"No offense to Detroit, man, but I'm from New York." -Insane Clown Posse
