From above, I am a golden apple bobbing in a five gallon bucket. works by Kathryn Lien
“I think of all the rules ... telling you to stop doing things, which are the should-nots, as creating a kind of frame, if you think of it in space rather than in time, or you think of a frame in time rather than in space, or you could think of it as a proscenium around a stage, or you could think of it as a break after a line of poetry.
These are things that create meaning, They bound time and say this is going to be special. Now we’re going to make something extraordinary out of the ordinary.”
