The greatest tragedy of life is that, having paid that awful price of suffering according to the flesh that his bowels might be filled with compassion, and being now prepared to reach down and help us, he is forbidden because we won't let him. We look down instead of up.
Truman G. Madsen

It is in vain to dream of a wildness distant from ourselves. There is none such. It is the bog in our brains and bowels, the primitive vigor of Nature in us, that inspires that dream. I shall never find in the wilds of Labrador a greater wildness than in some recess of Concord.
Henry David Thoreau
Image
Then Jix locked eyes with him and said very calmly, If you hit her, I will open my mouth wide enough to swallow you whole, force you through my bowels, then out my other end. Avalon scowled at him.
