I am done with great things and big plans, great institutions and big successes. I am for those tiny, invisible loving human forces that work from individual to individual, creeping through the crannies of the world like so many rootlets, or like the capillary oozing of water, yet which, if given time, will rend the hardest monuments of human pride.
-- William James
my wordpress blog: has a photo of a few of my notebook pages from the drafting of Hound Dog True. Such small notes. Such tiny ideas. Sometimes we forget the value of small things.
Okay, William James doesn't forget.
But we can't all be William James. (In part, because he didn't have ovaries and the species would have ceased to exist already.)
