    clean and straight. Indecision is

    and leaves ragged edges behind.

      The society which scorns excellence
      in plumbing as a humble activity and
      tolerates shoddiness in philosophy
      because it is an exalted activity
      will have neither good plumbing nor good philosophy ...
      neither its pipes nor its theories will hold water.

some exit to nightmare
most end with the dreamer

But at least one must be lived ... and died.
