Keep from me with your fetid breath Bony hands and that ever-whining Never-satisfied lustful cry: Seek the heavy and burdened head Bowed and ripe for your harvest dread, I will not die! Pass me and leave me; the wind is sweet, Larks will sing to the sun tomorrow Youth has no friend in a winding …

Earth to earth, Flesh to sod, Breath to the winds, And soul to God.
Last Monday night there was an interesting programme on late on BBC1. The blurb from the website says that Pullman was named one of Britain’s greatest writers as well as – strangely for someone who is described as a childrens writer – one of the most dangerous writers in Britain.

The cleanliness of his motor manufacturing plants is legendary, as referenced in the brief article in the image linked here. Click on the image for a larger version to read the rest of the detail. For me, the specific line here, on the need for attention to detail in order to achieve …
In December 2011, the Irish Independent published an article looking back at their own coverage of Christmas over the years, entitled “Rolling back the Christmases”. In it, they quoted John D. Sheridan. Sheridan was a popular columnist in the Irish Independent, on Saturdays, during the 1960’s.
