Most important things aren't exciting

The friends who frequent it
A set of impossible demands
The thick darkness of futurity
Thus were the trials of my young life made coherent

For logic is about truth.
The wish without the act
Good at Repelling Invaders
Its purpose is something else
That's a reader for you
Epistemological Modesty
But only by virtue of its results

A sojourner, as all my fathers were
Faithful old Mr. Brain
The same fragility as a life
Such comfort
Tantamount to disenfranchising yourself
Observations on literary durability
In earnest
Define: Puissance
