I have nothing of real substance to contribute...because it's a long weekend and my brain has turned off but it reminded me of another quote:
The young always have the same problem - how to rebel and conform at the same time. They have solved this by defying their parents and copying one another. -Quentin Crisp
And at the moment any witty/informed quote reminds me of this one:
The next best thing to being clever is being able to quote someone who is -Mary Pettibone Poole
In other news how your English speech coming along I haven't really started mine...I've just got vague notes
I'm also posting with my dodgey 'anger' icon...because it amuses me far too much, seriously I'm considering paying for my LJ to get more icons spots...
i quiet like your quotes. paticularly the mary pettibone poole one.
my english speach is written and not that bad really. it goes for 4.20 though not in the limit but i shall just have to talk fast. it's really a very hard assignment. we have to talk about the ways both text display their veiw on the future, then the relationship between nature and humanity and then on top of all that we have to compare the contexts of each composer and text and explin how that influences the view presented. that's a hell of alot to put in 3-4 min.
i don't mind the icon either. though i think you'd already mentioned it.
