CURRENT MISSION

To show how you can be on the verge of greatness sometimes.

ABOUT ME

In November, I'll board a ship at the port of Yokohama and be at sea for almost four months. I get a bunk, meals, and to listen to the whales in tierra del fuego, in return for filing daily dispatches.

PHILOSOPHY

To The Parcae

"A single summer grant me, great powers,
And a single autumn for fully ripened song
That, sated with the sweetness of my playing
my heart may more willingly die
The soul that living, did not attain its divine right
cannot repose in the nether world
But once what I am bent on,
What is holy, my poetry is accomplished:
Be welcome then, stillness of the shadows' world!
I shall be satisfied though my lyre will not
accompany me down there.
Once I lived like the gods
And more is not needed"
