Aloha Libya

A L O H A !


 
  "Taking pleasure in the flight
of a bird
is not undermined
by knowing a lot more than
our ancestors did
about how that bird evolved,
and how it works:
on the contrary."

" A writer should be able to write
in any voice she likes;
and invented feelings
may have a power
and an authenticity
that transcend literal accuracy."

even when they're not so good
and sympathizes with your troubles
even when they're not so bad. "

    Freedom we are slowly learning is not a birthright but rather a painful process. They have earned the right to the government they desire.
