For my beloved 56 followers of unknown origin, a sporadic series of quotes from books I teach. It's all I've got.
"It's all very, very noisy out there. Very hard to spot the tune."
--Tom Stoppard, Arcadia

"But cruel are the times when we are traitors
And do not know ourselves; when we hold rumor
From what we fear, yet know not what we fear,
But float upon a wild and violent sea
Each way and move"
--Shakespeare, Macbeth
And do not know ourselves; when we hold rumor
From what we fear, yet know not what we fear,
But float upon a wild and violent sea
Each way and move"
--Shakespeare, Macbeth
