From the shelf

Nothing in the canon is tethered to February 29. One line is set aside for this year, the same line for every reader.

February 29 stays in the book in common years. The lived calendar skips it. This page does not.

Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you.
The Gospel of MatthewThe Gospel of Matthew · 5:44

In 1997 this day opens on Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.

Arrow keys turn the day. S keeps the line. Slash focuses search.
