The act of
smelling something, anything, is remarkably like the act of
thinking. Immediately at the moment of perception, you can
feel the mind going to work, sending the odor around from
place to place, setting off complex repertories through the
brain, polling one center after another for signs of re
recognition, for old memories and old connection.
-- Lewis Thomas

Our moments of

to show for them; for those experiences have left an
indelible impression, and we are ever and anon reminded of
them.
