“A beautiful thing is never perfect.” — Egyptian proverb*

This series stems from the portable document technology made of the stems of Egypt’s Nile grass: the papyrus sedge also called paper reed. Inked in the language of pictorial images and phonetic symbols, it was the new medium of an ancient message.

Keep away from trouble and sing to it. —Egyptian proverb*

*The Egyptian proverbs quoted throughout this post are from Hanna Fielding’s favourites.

Sitting still
Does the catbird seat
Make a lap

If a dog jumps into your lap, it is because he is fond of you; but if a cat does the same thing, it is because your lap is warmer. —Alfred North Whitehead

“The truth is, I need 10 lifetimes to scratch the surface of the things I’d love to do.” —Bear Grylls

A star shines
Behind a curtained
Looking glass

“Oh, you hate your job? Why didn’t you say so? There’s a support group for that. It’s called EVERYBODY, and they meet at the bar.”—Drew Carey

Head of human resources
