Plus que ça change

It was the healthy side of Cowper's self-distrust that it never allowed his imagination to become self-indulgent or self-deceptive, as the roman-tic imagination was so often tempted to be. With modest amusement he would prick the bubble of his daydream, and turn towards home.

On this date some years ago

I ventured where I am. I do

not paint pictures and I do

not write poetry; I turn to-

ward my place of origin, as

even painters and poets do,

but my home is many places.
