–give me plain glass = JOHN FOWLES ... Music is the mathematics of the gods=PYTHAGORAS ... Nothing is more fluid than language = R. L. SWIHART

I cannot live without the oxygen of laughter = DAWN POWELL ... !!! ... But laughter cannot survive without the hydrogen of gravitas = PAUL OLIVERIO

Four Belated Appreciations From William Sydney Porter

________________________________________________________________________________________________

At birth, his name was
William Sydney Porter

You can't appreciate
HOME
till you've left it
MONEY
till it's spent
YOUR WIFE
till she's joined
a woman's club
nor
OLD GLORY
till you see it hanging
on a broomstick on the shanty
of a consul in a foreign town
***

O HENRY
