have you ever drank a river? stretched your lips over it's banks and ****** everything — the fishes, the canoes, and the boots that sunk 5 years ago. I am so thirsty that if I could stretch my mouth around this planet and crunch the glaciers, swallow the oceans, and breathe in the clouds — It would not still be enough. But see what nature did. It gave me a small mouth and a mind that believes that a cupful is enough.
