“If you want me again look for me under your bootsoles.
You will hardly know who I am or what I mean,
But I shall be good help to you nevertheless
And filter and fiber your blood.
Failing to fetch me at first keep encouraged,
Missing me one place search another,
I stop some where waiting for you”

“An old joke has an Oxford professor meeting an American former graduate student and asking him what he's working on these days.

That's how it survives.”
