Someone
once said, "I hate writing, but I love having
written." I agree. Sometimes, I love writing;
most of the time, I only love having written. I
have included book reviews, papers from several
classes and Spanish poetry with my translations
below.
This spring break, I read two books: Flannery O'Connor's Wise Blood and Willa Cather's My Antonia. I generally admire O'Connor and don't especially admire Cather, but I found that I enjoyed My Antonia a whole lot more than Wise Blood. Go figure.
"It
is a great thing to start life with a small number
of really good books
which are your very own." - Sir Arthur
Conan Doyle

"Nor...
do I want to leave the impression that reading
many books is important.
Reading great books and reading them well is what
is important."

Me Most"
