One day, six feet; where will the Pole Star move to?

It is now 118 years since Van Gogh himself to death. Has the world

that includes me been able to do anything to prevent any more

tragedies like Van Gogh’s from repeating themselves?

You? You could barely help yourself. Or, your family. Or your friends,

your loved ones. Why do you want to show off? You have good reasons

to ask.

Yes. I do want to show off. So man may be like man. Not a boring

portrait  of man. But a cheerful portrait of man.
