"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

Leap.

Seidenstrücker, Puddle Jumper at the Berlin Zoo, 1930


We must walk consciously only part way toward our goal and then leap in the dark to our success.

- Henry David Thoreau

Today's German vocabulary word: Pfützenspringerin ... puddle jumper.

Thanks, Facie Populi.
