“Where is truth, forsooth, and who knoweth it? Is Beauty beautiful, or is it only our eyes that make it so? Does Venus squint? Has she got a splay-foot, red hair, and a crooked back? Anoint my eyes, good Fairy Puck, so that I may ever consider the Beloved Object a paragon! Above all, keep on anointing my mistress's dainty peepers with the very strongest ointment, so that my noddle may ever appear lovely to her, and that she may continue to crown my honest ears with fresh roses!” MayDoeEyeBeautifulFeetHonestObjectsHairRedEarsRoseLovelyBelovedFairyStrongestVery StrongCrownsMistressCrookedVenusPuckRed HairAnointingDaintyParagon Book:The Virginians: Christie's Collections Source: The Virginians: Christie's Collections

And, yes, it's asking a lot of someone who's used to being hit over the head with bright neon to listen to this.” WritingSeemsUsedRecordsModernHonestSingingPerformancesEarsAskingProductionsVulnerableSubtleSarcasticNeon Author:Ben Folds
