JC’s Profile

“Not as the plants and flowers of Earth, growing peacefully beneath a simple sun, were the blossoms of the planet Lophai. Coiling and uncoiling in double dawns; tossing tumultuously under vast suns of jade green and balas-ruby orange; swaying and weltering in rich twilights, in aurora-curtained nights, they resembled fields of rooted serpents that dance eternally to an other-worldly music.”
― Clark Ashton Smith, Lost Worlds

“Unexpected intrusions of beauty. This is what life is.”
― Saul Bellow, Herzog

“Everything began with a single breath. A light wind that started a sway, and the sway started a turn, and the turn... The turn started everything.”
― Jim McCann, Return of the Dapper Men

“I’m bored’ is a useless thing to say. I mean, you live in a great, big, vast world that you’ve seen none percent of. Even the inside of your own mind is endless; it goes on forever, inwardly, do you understand? The fact that you’re alive is amazing, so you don’t get to say ‘I’m bored.”
― Louis CK
