"Actually part of the "Great Books of the Western World" series, but I didn't want to put that because I have no intention of finishing the whole series in the next year, two or even ten years."
"The last lines of Antigone CHORUS: Where wisdom is, there happiness will crown A piety that nothing will corrode But high and mighty words and ways Are flogged to humbleness, till age, Beaten to its knees, at last is wise."
"Without rhyme or reason, I am re-exploring the classics. Books and plays that I know well and have written about academically. This is one. Shakespeare, Homer, Marlow are others."
