LOL. i remember eliot too... it was a poem called The Wasteland?

Sadly, I don't quite understand his writing :(

i never understood it either.

i really liked lord chesterfield's letter to his son
oh, and camus and existentialism.
and you liked voltaire a lot. hehe

how do you guys remember this stuff?????

i can never recall who or what we studied in high school. i only remember voltaire because of erika's cartoon.

The wasteland supposedly (on the exterior) deals with war, if that helps any. Funny you guys should mention it, I have a copy of it the poem in front of me right now :)
