From red-bugs and bed-bugs, from sand-flies and landflies, Mosquitoes, gallnippers and fleas, From hog-ticks and dog-ticks, from hen-lice and men-lice, We pray thee, good Lord, give us ease.

Townend Glover

Quote of the day

One of the first signs of the beginnings of understanding is the wish to die. This life appears unbearable, another unattainable. One is no longer ashamed of wanting to die; one asks to be moved from the old cell, which one hates, to a new one, which one will only in time come to hate.
Franz Kafka
