THISNIGHT

From my file of Algis Budry's quotes:                  
     
     For them it was always now -- this piece of work,
     for its own sake in the fatigue-ridden reaches of
     this night, for this reader and for what
     you thought of yourself.
                                                                   
     It shows.  This stuff does not grow old.  It is born of
     everything you had thought and tried up to now,
     and it cannot grow old, for nothing about it was
     postponed for a time which might not come.
                                                                   
                                 (from the May 1978 issue of F&SF)
