"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

Coolant.


Fill with mingled cream and amber,
I will drain that glass again.



Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chamber of my brain —



Quaintest thoughts — queerest fancies
Come to life and fade away;



What care I how time advances?
I am drinking ale today.


- Edgar Allan Poe
