“For there is no veil over a star.”Marcus Aurelius · Organic Quote T-Shirt

First day at the new job. In the car you rehearsed a better version of yourself. Then you got out and just said hello.

It closes a note about the Pythagoreans, who looked to the sky each morning. The stars, Marcus says, keep doing the same work in the same way.

The small dot up high is the star. The line waits below it, in open sky.

Organic cotton.

Wear it the day you stop performing.
