They will get it straight one day at the Sorbonne. We shall return at twilight from the lecture Pleased that the irrational is rational.

-Stevens,Wallace
  NotesToward A Supreme Fiction,'It Must Give Pleasure'.

A classic lecture, rich in sentiment, With scraps of thundrous Epic lilted out By violet-hooded Doctors, elegies And quoted odes, and jewels five-words-long, That on the stretched forefinger of all Time Sparkle for ever.

-Tennyson
  The Princess, pt.2, l.352^7.
