Nature hides her secrets because of her essential loftiness, but not by means of ruse.
(Albert Einstein)
Seeing only the chrysalis, we never know which is going to contain Batman, at any stage of the game. By extension of this metaphor, all caterpillars are Batman until proven otherwise. Dr. Einstein points out that Nature unfolds the mystery in her own time. With such a potentially optimistic end in mind, it’s ludicrous to give up the search. So don’t?
I have so much to say about Rufus and his amazing family (except for that bastard Loudon) that there is simply not time today. Instead, I want to focus on the joyful fun of this song, which was written for the soundtrack to Meet the Robinsons (2007).
Rufus Wainwright – Another Believer
It’s been a very, very long time since I kissed anyone, but I suspect it is like riding a bicycle. Not in that you never forget how, but in that you have to go for it or you will tip over and crash. I am not interested in testing that theory just yet, but it is good just to know there is love and romance thriving in the universe.
Hello, I got something to tell you
But it’s crazy, I got something to show you
So give me just one more chance, one more glance
And I will make of you another believer
Guess what?
You got more than you bargained
Ain’t it crazy?
You got more than you paid for
So give me just one more chance, one more glance
One more hand to hold
You’ve been on my mind, though it may seem I’m fooling
Wasting so much time, though it may seem I’m fooling
What are we gonna do?
What are we gonna do about it?
So then, that is all for the moment
Until next time, until then, do not worry
And give me just one more chance, one more glance
And I will make of you, yeah I’m gonna make of you another believer
You’ve been on my mind, though it may seem I’m fooling
Wasting so much time, thought it may seem I’m fooling
What are we gonna do?
What are we gonna do about it?
Hello, I got something to tell you
Hello, I got something to tell you
You’ve been on my mind, wasting so much time.
kisses are a better fate
than wisdom. — E.E. Cummings

Never a lip is curved with pain
That can’t be kissed into smile again. — Bret Harte
A kiss makes the heart young again and wipes out the years. — Rupert Brooke
Ancient lovers believed a kiss would literally unite their souls, because the spirit was said to be carried in one’s breath. — Eve Glicksman
