Auden on professors


"A professor is someone who talks in somebody else's sleep." -W.H. Auden

Hehehe. I like this, even though I hope it's not entirely true...

Oh, and Auden's birthday is today, though I'm not particularly fond of him, so I don't plan to make much of it. Too bad for him that he couldn't get himself born a day earlier. Then he could have shared a birthday with the fabulous Lindsay Young, someone I am particularly fond of. Happy Birthday, Lindsay! You are far more to me than W.H. Auden!
