Revistied this quote this morning; made me think of JDS: "Whoever comes to the gates of literature without the Muses' madness, believing that technique alone will make him an adequate writer, is himself ineffectual, and the writing of this sane man vanishes before that of the man who is mad." PLATO, *Phaedrus* Just how long is CITR going to be around? How soon will reprints require footnotes? Is JD ever goning to snap out of it? Beautiful morning to wonder. Leaves and rain falling fast in Vancouver.
