Moreover Coleridge, just like his colleagues and successors, and in deference to the ideas of Dean Trench and to the Canones he and his committee had written, stuck gamely to the basic principle of the project: that the more quotations that could be found, the more easily the subtle differences between the (possibly) myriad usages of any single word could be identified.

Besides passing the eleven-plus in order to get into St Marylebone I had to pass in interview with the headmaster.

The 1st New York Dragoons debouched into an open field facing Lee's reserve line of works. Gibbs asked a captured southerner whether infantry lay ahead. "Go to the front and you'll see." the Confederate answered.. Gibbs cursed him and ordered his men to charge.

I have to translate from german into english*:
"The work of the curator is, to place specific objects into the exhibition space which actually own the status/state of art, - this is drawing a distinction between curator and the artist, who owns the right to place objects into the exhibition space which doesn't own the status of art - but earning the status/state of art through the act of exhibition. (From: Marc Jongens, Philosophy of the room/space - settlement of esthetical and political theory) * this was brutal diff for me to translate ![]() |

I realized the closest book is the one I finished writing today (the rough draft, anyway). It's still up on my screen, so here it is (cut and paste FTW!)

Grab the book nearest you. Right now. * Turn to page 56. * Find the fifth sentence. * Post that sentence. * Don't dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST book. I have not read the entire thread. If this is a repeat... my apologies. Whatever they had identified with, whatever gave them their sense of self, had been taken away. _____________________

She walked barefoot at the edge of the surf, skirts held sloppily up and often trailing in the water, purposely, to show her disappointment.
[Edit: Heh. Sounds a right bodice-ripper. It's actually Annabel Lyon's quite good first novel, The Golden Mean, about (of all things) Aristotle's tutelage of Alexander the Great. (Yes, I know a Harlequin paperback would be better for my reputation. ![]() _____________________
