Girl with a Cabbage.

"At a Lunar Eclipse

Thy shadow, Earth, from Pole to Central Sea,
Now steals along upon the Moon’s meek shine
In even monochrome and curving line
Of imperturbable serenity.

How shall I link such sun-cast symmetry
With the torn troubled form I know as thine,
That profile, placid as a brow divine,
With continents of moil and misery?"

--Thomas Hardy

Elegy on Toy Piano.

" 'Move slow and build things' is the antidote to Silicon Valley’s mantra: 'move fast and break things'.

An example is Gaudi’s Sagrada Familia basilica in Barcelona, approaching completion after 134 years of devoted work."
