In this pastoral setting a young man was enabled to loaf comfort- ably and delightfully through four luxurious and indolent years. They loafed and invited their souls or, with great energy and enthusiasm, promoted the affairs of glee-clubs. athletic teams, class politics, frater- nities, debating societies, and dra- matic clubs. And they talked — al- ways talked, under the trees, un- der the ivied walls, assembled in their rooms . . . they talked with a large easy fluency about God, the Devil, and philosophy, the girls, politics, athletics, fraternities and the girls — My God! how they talked ! Thomas Wolfe. Look Homeward, Angel tedium, tedium, tedium. The frenzied Ceremonial drumming of the humdrum! Where in this small-talking world can I find A longitude with no platitude? . . . If only I had been born a flame, a flame Poised, sav. on the flighty head of a candle, 1 could have stood in this draught and gone out. Whip, through the door of my exasperation. But I remain, like the possibility Of water in a desert. Christopher Fry. The Lady ' s ot For Burning Page 24

Books are good enough in their own way, hut they are a mighty hloodless substitute for life. It seems a pity to sit, like the Lady of Shalott, peering into a mirror, with your hack turned on all the bustle and glamor of reality. And if a man reads very hard, as the old anecdote reminds us. he will lKi e little time for thought. Robert L. Stevenson, Virginibus Piieresque To spend too much time in studies is sloth; to use them too much for ornament is affection; to make judgment wholly by their rules is the humor of a scholar. Francis Bacon, Of Studies Page
