We would worry less about what others think of us if we realized how seldom they do.
Wisdom - that part of knowledge that isn't only true, but also happens to be helpful.

All designed objects are propaganda for a certain way of life.
Sometimes we need to stop analysing the past, stop planning the future, stop figuring out precisely how we feel, stop deciding exactly what we want, and just see what happens.
We are not the same persons this year as last; nor are those we love. It is a happy chance if we, changing, continue to love a changed person.
"Never ascribe to malice that which can be explained by incompetence." --Napoleon Bonaparte

Spring 2011 Sheffield Green One – Faunagraphic.

Leonard Cohen

“I’ve got no future, my days are few, the present’s not that pleasant; just a lot of things to do, I thought the past would last me but the darkness got that too.” Leonard Cohen.

Cave, shelter, ingenuity

This cave home was built by pouring concrete over stacked hay bales, cutting an opening, and then letting a cow in to eat the hay. More pictures here.

Wintering Bikes

Here’s a slice of life in Montreal. The mournful sight of bikes rusting away in the snowbank.

There’s lots of reasons to bike in Montreal. The bike lanes pretty much go everywhere, and there’s nowhere to park a car anyway. Plus it’s greener, and saves money. So lots of people bike. Some ride all winter. Snow and sleet be dammed.

Here on the Plateau, people live in these 100 year old buildings with precarious external staircases. There’s no place in your tiny apartment for a bike even if you didn’t fall to your death trying to take it [

Start The Revolution Without Me: Dr Feelgood’s Canvey

I can’t think of any other band who continued to nail their colours to the local mast quite as much as Dr Feelgood.
