at least that if no more, thought through my eyes.

Signatures of all things I am hear to read, seaspawn and seawrack, the nearing tide, that rusty boot."

"To see symbols in all things is to lend them a hidden meaning

and to approach the sensory as if it were spiritual and vice versa"

Charles Baudelaire - Richard Wagner et Tannhäuser à Paris (1861).

"When you read certain passages in Ulysses you feel that Joyce’s mind and your mind are one,

that he knows all about you though he has never heard your name,

that there is some world outside time and space in which you and he are together"

George Orwell, Inside The Whale, I. (1940.)
