If I chose to listen, I could hear the swish of taxis bound for downtown bars or the soft saxophone riffs that drift from a neighbor's window, but nothing gets through. I am suspended in a sensory deprivation tank, and the very lack of sensation is delicious. Anne Fadiman

Eat it, drink it, sleep it, then when you are the most prepared, you can make the most of it. Christopher Judge

Christopher Morley
