I love this quote:
A mind of the caliber of mine cannot derive its nutriment from cows.
— George Bernard Shaw
More nourishment for my mind…
ART
Giuseppe Penone: A Tree in the Wood — Yorkshire Sculpture Park, West Bretton, Wakefield

I have been listening to Jimi Hendrix quite a lot recently, especially Electric Ladyland. Voodoo Child (Slight Return) is like De Kooning in sound; like Ruth's Zowie, Door To The River and Spike's Folly II for the ears!
