history and integrity
i would like to quote one of joyce n hongy's friends...(u all tell him 4 me can)
"the writer looks into the soul of invented people, the poet into his own soul - but a great historian looks into and grasps the souls of societies. "
how true is that.whilst i could act sophisticated and name-drop several metaphysical theorists who would obviously have a rebuttal to that assertion, i dont care. i completely agree with that statement.
im damn envious of the english/history students.
ah well, law aint that bad i guess.
