  1. A quotation from Molière

    MERCURY: An easygoing vice, I hold, is better than an angry virtue.
     
    MERCURE: [J’aime mieux un vice commode,
       Qu’une fatigante vertu.]

    Molière (1622-1673) French playwright, actor [stage name for Jean-Baptiste Poquelin]
    Amphitryon, Act 1, sc. 4, ll. 681-682 (1668) [tr. Wilbur (2010)]

  2. A quotation from Molière

    TARTUFFE: Some joys, it’s true, are wrong in Heaven’s eyes;
    Yet Heaven is not averse to compromise;
    There is a science, lately formulated.
    Whereby one’s conscience may be liberated,
    And any wrongful act you care to mention
    May be redeemed by purity of intention.
    I’ll teach you. Madam, the secrets of that science;
    Meanwhile, just place on me your full reliance.
    Assuage my keen desires, and feel no dread:
    The sin, if any, shall be on my head.
     
    [Le ciel défend, de vrai, certains contentements;
    Mais on trouve avec lui des accommodements.
    Selon divers besoins, il est une science
    D’étendre les liens de notre conscience,
    Et de rectifier le mal de l’action
    Avec la pureté de notre intention.
    De ces secrets, madame, on saura vous instruire ;
    Vous n’avez seulement qu’à vous laisser conduire.
    Contentez mon désir, et n’ayez point d’effroi ;
    Je vous réponds de tout, et prends le mal sur moi.]


    Molière (1622-1673) French playwright, actor [stage name for Jean-Baptiste Poquelin]
    Tartuffe, Act 4, sc. 5 (1664) [tr. Wilbur (1963)]

  3. Photographed in a backpackers hostel in Te Wai Pounamu. The text reads;

    "The truth about using HostelWorld and booking.com
    - they take 15% of your payment -
    Try always to book directly with the hostel or hotel
    Owners of booking sites live in luxury and don't do any work"

  4. I forgot to take a before photo; showing how overgrown pathway to #Cowichan #TinyCabin was before I cleared it all up.
    This is the little #cabin that I like staying in when visiting/housesitting for my younger middle brother. There's a large house on property but I don't like staying in big places & prefer small spaces.

  5. This simple, yet gorgeous repetitive display of a flowing #rose dress is located in the lift foyer, at #hotelchadstone #Australia.

    Makes the wait almost worthwhile.

    I found it a little more than eye catching, given my love of roses and flora.

    It was quite mesmerising to be honest!

    Location: #eastmulvern #chadstone, #Australia.

  6. A little #accomodation tip for my fellow #neurodivergent people and those with #SensoryProcessing issues that has been a game changer for me:

    If you love the design on a t-shirt but hate the way it feels around your neck, just cut out the collar. Go slowly, use good scissors, and leave about a half inch margin from the collar. I like to go deeper at the front for a sort of v-neck effect.

    If done carefully it looks fine, and you can enjoy that cool shirt without the sensory misery! 🥰
