| Bio: | I'm using Twitter more often than LiveJournal these days, but LoudTwitter posts my Twitterings here once per day.
And again, when in the long course of time the story seems to belong to a rather distant past, I am afraid that I shall be regarded as a mere teller of fairy tales or listed among the tragic poets.
~Procopius, circa AD 500
Si qui forte mearum ineptiarum
lectores eritis manusque vestras
non horrebitis admovere nobis.
~Catullus, Carmen 14b
And in the sphere of thought, no less than in the sphere of time, motion is no more. The thing that you personally have long ago forgotten, or can easily forget, is happening to me now, and will happen to me again to-morrow. Remember this, and you will be able to understand a little of why I am writing, and in this manner writing.
~O. Wilde, De Profundis
We are as forlorn as children lost in the wood. When you stand in front of me and look at me, what do you know of the grief that is in me and what do I know of yours? And if I were to cast myself down before you and tell you, what more would you know about me than you know about Hell when someone tells you it is hot and dreadful?
~F. Kafka
Ennui! That monster frail!—With eye wherein
A chance tear gleams, he dreams of gibbets, while
Smoking his hookah, with a dainty smile. . .
—You know him, reader,—hypocrite,—my twin!
~C. Baudelaire
Pray thee, take care, that tak'st my book in hand,
To read it well: that is, to understand.
~Ben Jonson, Epigrams I: To the Reader
