“The autumn wind, and the winter wind, have come and gone,
And still the days, those lonely days, go on and on...”
- Lyrics from Frank Sinatra’s “The Summer Wind”

“Stagnant water loses its purity,
and in cold weather becomes
frozen, even so does inaction sap
the vigors of the mind.”
-Leonardo DaVinci

with wealthy monogamists,
all powerful and members of
the best families all drinking
themselves to death.”
-Ernest Hemingway

“Mirrors on the ceiling,
The pink champagne on ice,
And she said, ‘We are all just prisoners here, of our own device.’”
-Lyrics from The Eagles’ “Hotel California”
