I completed the book during my journey back to the campus. Its a lovely book, read it if you can get your hands on it.
Here are few excerpts from the book.
The old dreams were good dreams, they didn't work out, but i'm glad i had them.
I move in dimension Z, the world goes by somewhere else in another slice of things, parallel to me.
You are always dealing with markets, and markets - mass markets - are designed to suit average tastes. Thats were the numbers are.
Profit and Subscriptions and the rest of that stuff dominate art. We're all getting lashed to the great wheel of uniformity.
The virtues of Amateurism - The market kills most artisitic passion than anything else. Its a world of safety out there.
With time in my pocket, weather on my side .....
W.B. Yeats : Realism, economy, sensuousness, beauty and magic.
All marriages, all relationships are the inertia of protracted custom. Custom brings predictability, and predictability carries its own comforts.
If time permits, probably i will write a line or two about the book, the way Robert Kincaid and Francesca Johnson danced together and fell in love, those four days of passion and a lifetime of memories, their sacrifices and their ends.
