This is what life was like before Google fixed it.

Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because Fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities; Truth isn’t.
Mark Twain in Following the Equator
via Brain Pickings
The value of goals is not in the future they describe, but the change in perception of reality they foster. What we focus on changes what we notice. Our brain filters information, seeing one thing in a situation instead of something else, based on what we identify with, what we have our attention on, what we’re looking for—more or less consciously.

If you want to go quickly, go alone. If you want to go far, go with a group.
– African proverb
Wordpharmacy is a concrete poetical work, which playfully equates the structure of language with pharmaceutical products. It consists of ten medicine boxes, each representing one of the ten word-groups. Each box contains a leaflet that functions as an instructional poem, guiding the reader’s ingestion of the given word group.
