St. James Place

A wise man will know what game to play to-day, and play it. We must not be governed by rigid rules, as by the almanac, but let the season rule us. - Thoreau

she loved rolling the dice

playing with fire

fanning the flames

playing twisted games

displaying pictures without any frames

everyone wearing tags with no names

selling insurance without any claims

Author's Note

“If you chance to live and move and have your being in that thin stratum in which the events that make the news transpire- thinner than the paper on which it is printed- then these things will fill the world for you; but if you soar above or dive below that plane, you cannot remember nor be reminded of them. Really to see the sun rise or go down every day, so to relate ourselves to a universal fact, would preserve us sane forever.” - Thoreau
