A quotation from Marcus Aurelius

And to pursue pleasure as good, and flee from pain as evil — that too is blasphemous. Someone who does that is bound to find himself constantly reproaching nature — complaining that it doesn’t treat the good and bad as they deserve, but often lets the bad enjoy pleasure and the things that produce it, and makes the good suffer pain, and the things that produce pain.

[καὶ μὴν ὁ τὰς ἡδονὰς ὡς ἀγαθὰ διώκων, τοὺς δὲ πόνους ὡς κακὰ φεύγων ἀσεβεῖ: ἀνάγκη γὰρ τὸν τοιοῦτον μέμφεσθαι πολλάκις τῇ κοινῇ φύσει ὡς παῤ ἀξίαν τι ἀπονεμούσῃ τοῖς φαύλοις καὶ τοῖς σπουδαίοις, διὰ τὸ πολλάκις τοὺς μὲν φαύλους ἐν ἡδοναῖς εἶναι καὶ τὰ ποιητικὰ τούτων κτᾶσθαι, τοὺς δὲ σπουδαίους πόνῳ καὶ τοῖς ποιητικοῖς τούτου περιπίπτειν.]

Marcus Aurelius (AD 121-180) Roman emperor (161-180), Stoic philosopher
Meditations [To Himself; Τὰ εἰς ἑαυτόν], Book 9, ch. 1 (9.1) (AD 161-180) [tr. Hays (2003)]

New favorite traffic island. About five blocks from home, I walk past it once a week on my way to the market.

#Providence

A small triangular traffic island, in a chaotic looking five-way intersection.

The pupusa place I go to all the time used my photo of their food for their new sign!

In this color photograph by Toni Frissell, a man and woman are seated side-by-side in front of painted portraits. The woman is wearing an ornate black dress with pearl jewelry, holding a fan made of feathers or sequins. She has her hair up and wears makeup including eyeliner and lipstick.

The man on the right is dressed as if he's partaking in some sort of ceremonial event, sporting white pants and boots along with what appears to be armor plates over his chest that are adorned with a cross design featuring red lines intersecting at various angles. His cape has gold buttons running down its length, suggesting it might have been made from velvet or another rich fabric.

The man's jacket is embellished further by the addition of decorative shoulder straps and he holds something in both hands which could possibly be gloves and a ceremonial item such as an orb or scepter but not entirely clear. His expression seems serious with his mouth slightly open, perhaps mid-conversation.

In terms of colors, there are muted purples throughout the photo likely due to either artificial lighting at that time period (the late 1940s/early '50s) or an intentional artistic effect by Frissell herself.
