The title makes no real sense, but I'm rereading my favorite of Shakespeare's tragedies, Macbeth, and so I'm indulging myself.
Self-portrait #51.
Banquo: The earth hath bubbles as the water has,
And these are of them. Whither are they vanished?
Macbeth: Into the air, and what seemed corporal melted
As breath into the wind. Would they have stayed.
(Act I, scene iii, 79-82)
