Prov.6:9
"How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep?"




“Ix Zubin was impatient with such limited reasoning: ‘Big is no measure,Bolón. Look at that Chac Mool. Horrible though ours is, in comparison to this it’s a work of art. Ours is well carved, properly finished, and the boots and headdresses are handsomely done.’ ”~~~James A. Michener : Caribbean, Ch 2 Death of Greatness
