If you are a dreamer, come in. <br /> If you are a dreamer, a wisher,<br /> A liar, a hoper, a prayer, a magic-bean-buyer.<br /> If you&rsquo;re a pretender, come sit by my fire,<br /> For we have some flax- golden tales to spin. <br /> Come in! <br /> Come in!<br /> -Shel Silverstein

&ldquo;So the future seemed <br /> To mingle with the past. For a short space <br /> I saw revealed to the doubt the threads that bind <br /> This little speck of time we call &ldquo;To-day&rdquo; <br /> To the great cycle of unending life <br /> That has been and that shall be evermore.&rdquo;<br /> -Tours
