<blockquote>Pulvis et umbra sumus. We are but dust and shadow. | <blockquote>**Dust** is everywhere because its source is everything. Its most remote origins in time and space are the Big Bang, collapsing stars, and the dark line across the center of the Milky Way, which, according to astronomer Donald Brownlee, “is a line of dirt perhaps 65,200 light years across, and 3.832 X 1017 miles long.” Here on earth, dust comes from everything under the sun: minerals, seeds, pollen, insects, molds, lichens, and even bacteria. Its sources also include bone, hair, hide, feather, skin, blood, and excrement. And things of human fabrication, too numerous to mention, also cover the earth and all the atmosphere with dust. |

<blockquote>Humankind is flickering, displaced from itself, ecstatic, rippling and dappled with shadows. **Shadows** made not only by some other entity interacting with it, like the sun through the trees, but shadows that are an intrinsic part of the thing. | <blockquote>Humankind is flickering, displaced from itself, ecstatic, rippling and dappled with shadows. **Shadows** made not only by some other entity interacting with it, like the sun through the trees, but shadows that are an intrinsic part of the thing. |
