“A man must feel he belongs to something. As long as he
floats around space doing little chores that start and end with his hands and

things are only tinsel paper that people wrap themselves in, having nothing
more important to do with their time.”-Ernest Haycox Bugles in the AfternoonWednesday, May 30, 2018
