“... [M]ost of us know accurately only what we constantly relearn; memory is a dipsomaniac, needing to be perpetually refreshed. ... And it seems to me more important to go out in life able to think straight and communicate clearly than even to know — and remember — the contents of every English book since Caedmon. ...

“Men are born soft and supple; dead they are stiff and hard. Plants are born tender and pliant; dead, they are brittle and dry. Thus whoever is stiff and inflexible is a disciple of death. Whoever is soft and yielding is a disciple of life. The hard and stiff will be broken. The soft and supple will prevail.”
