less than a drop in the great blue ocean of the sunlit sea


“I want the light of God, I want the sweet love of Jesus! I danced for the Devil; I saw him, I wrote in his book; I go back to Jesus; I kiss His hand. I saw Sarah Good with the Devil! I saw Goody Osburn with the Devil! I saw Bridget Bishop with the Devil!”

“Pray calm yourselves. I have eleven children, and I am twenty-six times a grandma, and I have seen them all through their silly seasons, and when it come on them they will run the Devil bowlegged keeping up with their mischief. I think she'll wake when she tires of it. A child's spirit is like a child, you can never catch it by running after it; you must stand still, and, for love, it will soon itself come back.”

“Great stones they lay upon his chest until he plead aye or nay. They say he give them but two words. "More weight," he says. And died.”--quotes from Arthur Miller's play The Crucible. But who cares about the truth of theatre any more. The truth clearly lies in the internet and social networking and television that promised so so much for all...and if sense of truth changes from year to year from decade to decade does anybody notice or care...


“one of what we all are…less than a drop in the great blue ocean of the sunlit sea. But it seems that some of the drops sparkle…some of them do-oooooo SPARKLE! “
