"A man has absolutely no other duty than this: to seek himself, to grope his own way forward, no matter wither it leads".

The indigenous Pakeha

"I was not the first man to arrive here. He came from somewhere else. I bought the land from someone who bought the land from someone who bought the land from someone who probably stole it. The sun rises in the east. The weather comes in from the west. I drink tea in China. My neighbour's fog still barks at me, I think he is Alsatian. Either I don't belong to anyone, Or else I'm indigenous everywhere. From "The indigenous Pakeha" Glenn Colquhoun

A Beautiful Time

"But a paraplegic in my street Whom they move together with his chair From shade into sunlight, sunlight into shade, Looks at a cat, a leaf, the chrome steel on an auto, And mumbles to himself, 'Beau temps, beau temps' It is true. We have a beautiful time As long as time is time at all." Czeslaw Milosz from "A Mistake".

Hope

"This is the place, bracing then, where I find what it turns out I've been looking for, By the sand, by the water, the what- you-don't-even-know-you're-missing: hope." From December 1991 ~ David Hare
