...first time in my life I feel old. When I was growing up in the '60s, the Beatles represented all the excitement, hopes and dreams of my generation. The future was boundless; it could only get better and better; and no words can recapture the feeling of being alive in that time. Now, with the death of John Lennon [Dec. 22], I feel that the spirit of the '60s is over...
...under such silent lands as these that the boundless riches lie, awaiting the power shovel and the drill.

De Vries also regularly travels to Paris, Frankfurt and London, where he enjoys an open door at central banks. Last week during the IMF meeting, he received visitors at an elegant 19th century...
...Celtics--Cowens and Havlicek included--have departed over the last few years, Hondo after a year-long farewell party, Cowens with only his personally written epitaph as a goodbye. But Arnold Auerbach remains, and the boundless ability of the oldest Celtic of them all is why the Celtics--infinitely capable of finishing third in the NBA Atlantic Division--might instead garner another green and white flag for their rafter collection...
