In my garden I spend my days, in my library I spend my nights. My interests are divided between my geraniums and my books. With the flower I am in the present; with the book I am in the past.

One half in day, the other dipt in night;
The one has music and the flying cloud,
The other, silence and the wakeful stars.
Alexander Smith
