The futility of pursuing your own thoughts   Visions in front of us are that; in front of us; We pursue them loyally to the summit of grief, While hasty they bend, disfigure, and vary. We arrest visions and hold them at rest, for observation, While the remaining phantasm floats away with smug efficiency. By the time enclosed, after the exertion, The nectar is superior once again in the vision in front.   In variety that is alive we reside, OF the COMPETING SCHEMAS OF RELATIVE INTENSITY, which decides influence in general.   - Daniel H. Hedges
