Every time a meteor comes close to the earth, we all think about the end of the world — but our internal soundtrack doesn't turn off. We're also thinking about pizza or passing a slow tractor or making a turn, and for a magical instant, our lives seem to be in conversation with the stars.

You have to go on and be crazy...I have measured out my life with coffee spoons...A puppy plays with every pup he meets...Facts are facts and will not disappear...We accumulate our opinions...Our nation has kept faith with its veterans...
