"This "commonplace book," as such collections of favorite quotations and personal comments are called, is arranged alphabetically by categories, some quite quirky, devised by Auden. "Dogs" and "Eating" get many pages, as does "Lead Mine, Visit To A." whereas "Bores" get just a half page but that includes "What is more enchanting than the voices of young people when you can't hear what they say?" (credited to one L. P. Smith. Good enough for uncommitted browsing."
