"…Living only for the moment, turning our full attention to the pleasures of the moon, the snow, the cherry blossoms and the maple leaves; singing songs, drinking wine, diverting ourselves just floating, floating….refusing to be disheartened, like a gourd floating along with the river current; this is what we call the floating world…” Asai Ryoi, in Ukiyo Monogatari (Tales of the Floating World, 1661)

Oscar Wilde Quote
Yes, I am a dreamer. For a dreamer is one who can only find his way by moonlight, and gets to see the dawn before the rest of the world. Oscar Wilde Sent via BlackBerry by AT
