From the shelf

Nothing in the canon is tethered to August 10. One line is set aside for this year, the same line for every reader.

You cannot step twice into the same river.
HeraclitusFragment, reported by Plato and Plutarch · c. 500 BCE

In 2016 this day opens on The Dhammapada.

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