from Good Omens by Neil Gaiman……………
If you want to imagine the future, imagine a boy and his dog and his friends. And a summer that never ends.And if you want to imagine the future, imagine a boot… no, imagine a sneaker, laces trailing, kicking a pebble; imagine a stick, to poke at interesting things, and throw for a dog that may or may not decide to retrieve it; imagine a tuneless whistle, pounding some luckless popular tune into insensibility; imagine a figure, half angel, half devil, all human…
Slouching hopefully towards Tadfield…
…forever.
H’m.
