It is worth being misunderstood once in a while, in exchange for getting that word out just in time.

Of course it’s not worth uttering disgusting mutterings “just to say something”, but some things cannot be structured into epic quotes before we say them!

Stray from the norm, defy the upcoming storm.

It takes a few times and then…they’ll say you are a poet.

Why not!

The old Roman soldier looked down from a satellite and gazed at the images of the worlds deepest oceans.

Coral reefs, plankton and sea greenery were clearly visible and only where Caesar had spilled wine was everything dark and empty.

Crops were thriving between islands, as well as upon them.

They still are.

The armies of the stratosphere were at rest.

Quantum data abounds.

Only additive knowledge bases are useful when ideas seem scarce.

But we know, we know, we know.

“Me too”, said the bright lion to the sun.

Dressed to look the part of a pert operator in a spy scene.

What you wear should always, we recommend, be what makes you feel comfortable.

That’s the only rule. It may well mean you’ll wear a dinner jacket to the ball, or an evening dress if that’s more the thing.

In a way unfamiliar to her admirers, the singer introduced a new song to start the show.

Three people were reading a newspaper, the old paper type, while the performance proceeded.

Two were smoking illegal substances (or not yet legalized, if you prefer it that way).

And one person was tuning his guitar ready for his solo guest spot on stage.

And yet the music played across smiling faces, the moon rose and the cool of the night reached down.

No songs were left unsung when the music faded and the clash of the symbol dissolved.

The journey home was full of smiles and laughs, bright eyes and well-tuned thoughts.

Dynastic dining and the big table bluff.

The bigger the dining table, the more important the occasion.

Hey! Hold on! It is not so!

Sometimes the number of seats at dinner do define the value of the rendezvous.

But in your golden shelves of great memories you will have all sorts of locations, table sizes, even crates posing as tables, to complete the pictures you see when you recall dinners of note.

This is true with everything.

A Ferrari may be fast, but sometimes a little Fiat 500 driven by someone in a hurry, on a Sicilian mountain road, seems faster!
