"I am not one who was born in the custody of wisdom. I am one who is fond of olden times and intense in quest of the sacred knowing of the ancients." Gustave Courbet

Happy birthday, London.


Jack London was born on this day in 1876.

One day
A stranger came up to me 
Speaking in riddles

He said:
"Inspiration incites the incense within that incarnates indigo indians."

I did not know what he meant until he added:

"You can't wait for inspiration.  You must go after it with a club."

Jack London
