Quotes by Dan Pollock  (?)

“* In his new concealment almost directly below them at the base of a tall cypress, Mickey was reminded of those boring talk-talk scenes in the movies, the ones you had to wait through for the action to start up again.”
Dan Pollock, Countdown to Casablanca

“Consolation   All are not taken; there are left behind Living Beloveds, tender looks to bring And make the daylight still a happy thing, And tender voices, to make soft the wind: But if it were not so—if I could find No love in all the world for comforting, Nor any path but hollowly did ring Where “dust to dust” the love from life disjoined, And if, before those sepulchers unmoving I stood alone (as some forsaken lamb Goes bleating up the moors in weary dearth) Crying “Where are ye, O my loved and loving?”— I know a Voice would sound, “Daughter, I am. Can I suffice for Heaven and not for earth?”
Dan Pollock, The Book of Uncommon Prayer
