Assorted Ideas, Large & Small
Assorted Ideas, Large & Small came from ordinary beginnings.
Love does not conquer all. Ideas do. All the world’s first something different, an idea, and it comes to life as a thing, lots of things.
Roughly a decade ago, a pair of writer friends invited me to join them in an out on borders project. Posting ideas, that is, in a group blog, original and off the beaten path, but one that might reset a paradigm if it reached enough eyeballs.
They called it The Thirteenth Edge but never explained why. They also soon lost their enthusiasm, but I didn’t.
And from there, Assorted Ideas, Large & Small was born.
I worked on it, off and on, then moved it over here on WordPress, a better environment for anyone who loves the play of images and ideas..
The Largest Idea
Everything Is Connected
Everything is connected… It’s a fact, and facts don’t care what you think. They just sit there. Pick a fight with them. They’re not always permanent. You can bend them.
Assorted Ideas, Large & Small That Stuck
They say love conquers all
You can’t start it like a car
You can’t stop it with a gun
Warren Zevon /Searching for a Hearth
All Those Big Things We Don’t Know
And now there is merely silence, silence, silence saying
All we did not know.
Sagacity, Willian Rose Benet
nobody, not even the rain, has such small hands
e.e. cummings/somewhere I’ve traveled gladly beyond
Heartily know,
When half-gods go,
The gods arrive.
Ralph Waldo Emerson, Give All to Love
Around us fear, descending
Darkness of fear above
And in my heart how deep unending
Ache of love!
On the beach at fontana – James Joyce

And In Verse…
There is no distinctly American criminal class – except Congress.
Mark Twain
