I thought I’d do something simple for my last post of the year. The title says it all. I put the quotes under the cut since there is some strong language.

My favorite is kind of long, and it’s really the third to the last sentence in this quote, but I need to put in the whole quote so that it’s in context to show why I love it so much.
“We don’t read and write poetry because it’s cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for. To quote from Whitman, “O me! O life!… of the questions of these recurring; of the endless trains of the faithless… of cities filled with the foolish; what good amid these, O me, O life?” Answer. That you are here – that life exists, and identity; that the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse. That the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse. What will your verse be?”
~ John Keating (Robin Williams) from Dead Poets’ Society
…that the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse.
Thanks for giving me a reason for thinking about this again, Maggie.
