New York Is My Favorite City.

To Fight For One's Country, To Offer One's Very Life To Promote The Well Being Of The United States, Is Truly A Noble Undertaking. But So Is The Vigilance Of The Citizen Who Carefully Examines Our Leaders To See If Political Problems Are Being Solved By Wars Simply Because This Seems To Be The Easiest Solution.

On The Streets Of The City They Have Taken My Who-i-am As Well As My What-i-was And Now I Am Desperate For Them Both Again

Everything In Life Is Made Up...you Make Up That You Are Happy. You Make Up That You Are Sad. You Make Up That You Are In Love. If You Don't Make Up Your Own Life, Who's Going To Make It Up For You? It's Bad Enough When You Die And Everybody Can Make Up Their Own Stories About You. —mr. Hooft

What I Do With My Books Is To Create Windows To My World That All May Peer Into. I Share The Images, The Feelings And Thoughts, And, I Hope, The Delight.
