“Looks like another beloved comic strip is being prepped for the big screen, and in this case, “big” is certainly the appropriate adjective.”

- HAHAHAHAA! Marmaduke, from the director of Shanghai Noon.

First, we take a great NEW POEM and, with our special machines, we extract the “meaning” (along with most of the words) and offer it to you for 10 dollars!

Wow, “aureate” is a beautiful word!

Derek Walcott won the 1992 Nobel Prize in Literature. This is his 14th poetry collection, so he’s not afraid at all of stupid ornate language like ‘aureate’ and we’re really not afraid of selling it to you.

But I can just read poems for free?

We are a print magazine!

“You will begin to touch heaven, Jonathan, in the moment you touch the perfect speed. And that isn’t flying a thousand miles an hour, or a million, or flying at the speed of light. Because any number is a limit, and perfect speed, my son, is being there.” — Richard Bach

“Why even try?”

- Lapoor.

Well, failure is a symptom of growth. Do not stagnate. Try, to show how the streams that feed you are aligned with high deposits of ice and snow.

“This was a very typical time. I was single. All you needed was a cup of tea, a light, and your stereo, you know, and that’s what I had.” — Steve Jobs, 1982.

I assume this is a cunning lie, but it represents something beautiful anyway.

“We excuse our intellects by declaring ourselves under-read and yet forget how much better read we all already are than Plato or Dante.” — Alain de Botton

You goon, this isn’t about books at all! Plato and Dante were instrumental in developing the common context we use to define our whole damn reality. Their intellectual power is not in question. Humans today are lucky if we produce one useless new idea, let alone an idea that lights up the globe.
