We have only one story. All novels, all poetry, are built on the never-ending contest in ourselves of good and evil. And it occurs to me that evil must constantly re-spawn, while good, while virtue, is immortal. Vice has always a new fresh young face, while virtue is venerable as nothing else in the world is.
John Steinbeck (1902-1968) American writer
East of Eden, ch. 34 (1952)More about this quote: wist.info/steinbeck-john/83944…

A little patch of land.
Bread on the table.
A dear friend you can talk to.
A small house you can call Home.
Rabbits…Such a modest dream. And yet so impossibly out of reach.
