A thought for the day.



The visitor to a place whose charm is a result of its backwardness is inclined to hope it will remain that way, regardless of how those who live in it may feel. The seeker of the picturesque sees the spread of improved techniques as an unalloyed abomination.
- Paul Bowles ( from the introduction to his book - Their Heads are Green)
