The wingspan of a Boeing 747 jet is longer than the Wright Brothers' first flight. Right now I'm having amnesia and deja vu at the same time. I think I've forgotten this before. I can't understand it. I can't even understand the people that understand it. Accept that some days you're the pigeon, and some days you're the statue. I wash everything on the gentle cycle. It's much more humane. The nice thing about meditation is that it makes doing nothing respectable. The really frightening thing about middle age is the knowledge that you'll grow out of it. Never believe anything until it has been officially denied. Last night somebody broke into my apartment and replaced everything with exact duplicates...

One final paragraph of advice: "Do not burn yourself out. Be as I am - a reluctant enthusiast....a half-hearted fanatic. Save the other half for yourselves and your lives for pleasure and adventure. It is not enough to fight for the land; it is even more important to enjoy it. While you can. While it's still there. So get out there, and hunt and fish, and mess around with your friends, ramble out yonder and explore the forests, encounter the Grizz, climb the mountains, bag the peaks, run the rivers, breathe deep of that yet sweet air, sit quietly for a while and contemplate the precious stillness, that lovely mysterious and awesome space. Enjoy yourselves, keep your brain active and alive, and I promise you this much; I promise you this one sweet victory over our enemies, over those desk-bound people with their hearts in safe deposit box and their eyes hypnotized by desk calculators. I promise you this: YOU WILL OUTLIVE THE BASTARDS." Edward Abbey
