“April is the cruellest month, breeding
Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing
Memory and desire, stirring
Dull roots with spring rain.
Winter kept us warm, covering5
Earth in forgetful snow, feeding
A little life with dried tubers.”

“The Gethenians do not see one another as men or women. This is almost impossible for our imaginations to accept….One is respected and judged only as a human being. You cannot cast a Gethnian in the role of Man or Woman, while adopting towards 'him' a corresponding role dependant on your expectations of the interactions between persons of the same or oppositve sex. It is an appalling experience for a Terran ”

Maybe we shouldn’t be buying $60 Bibles from the guy who attacks a judge’s daughter or who posts a picture of the sitting POTUS hogtied in the back of a truck. It doesn’t seem like he read it.

“Christmas and Easter can be subjects for poetry, but Good Friday, like Auschwitz, cannot. The reality is so horrible it is not surprising that people should have found it a stumbling block to faith.”

The sommelier at the restaurant tonight was quoting James Joyce. I’m now of the opinion that that should be a requirement for all sommeliers.
