Things I gathered last summer

The Coast of Utopia

'He’s a free man because he gives away freely. I’m beginning to understand the trick of freedom. Freedom can’t be a residue of what was unfreely given up, divided up like a fought-over loaf. Every giving up has to be self-willed, freely chosen, unenforceable. Each of us must forgo only what we choose to forgo, balancing our personal freedom of action against our need for the cooperation of other people- who are each making the same balance for themselves. What is the largest number of individuals who can pull this trick off? I would say it’s smaller than a nation, smaller than the ideal communities of Cabet or Fourier. I would say the largest number is smaller than three. Two is possible, if there is love, but two is not a guarantee.'

[Tom Stoppard - The Coast of Utopia: Shipwreck]

Sõbrad kirjutavad uusi laule
Ja laulavad vanu
Loome uusi tantse
Unustame vanad
Uued krutskid uued lood
nostalgia on hoor
põrgu uimasti
uinume koos

...selle ilusa kirjutise leidsin oma vanalt kõvalt kettalt.

I really miss home today

What if I never get to call those rusty beaches with reflections of factories and cranes my home again?
