The former post was off topic and was thus removed as it was a violation of our
Great Books & Classics spirit. We are migrating to
registration-only forums at href=http://jollyrogerwest.com>jollyrogerwest.com Great Books forums,
Philosophy Forums,
and booksliterature.com Great Books forums.

Please respect that these are Great Books sites, and we prefer posts along the following
lines:

Poetry should help, not only to refine the language of the time, but to prevent it from changing too rapidly.
T. S. EliotIt is amazing how complete is the delusion that beauty is goodness.
-Tolstoy, Leo

Tis not a lip or eye we beauty call, But the joint force and full result of all.
-Alexander Pope, An Essay on Criticism, 1711

And this I pray, that your love may abound still more and more in real knowledge and all discernment.
Philippians 1:9
