71.59.125 of Wayne, Pennsylvania, googled “inscape essence of the signified” and came up with such illustrious sites as Blackwell Synergy, www.gerardmanleyhopkins.org, and The British Journal of Aesthetics. And of course our own, your own, most humble Korrektiv, where was found Rufus’ dissertation on Walker Percy’s appropriation of Hopkins’ aesthetics, beginning with these quotations, prominently displayed:
And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God. ~ Matthew 19:24
To live in the past and future is easy. To live in the present is like threading a needle. ~ Walker Percy, Lancelot
So true, although I have experienced it rarely, and then only maybe. Thank you for visiting, M. 71.59.125 of Wayne, Pennyslvania, and may you always be poor and present.
