Berce mollement sur ton sein sublime
Ô puissante mer, l’enfant de Dindyme!

*Sigh* Death in Venice *sigh*
For all its flaws, I love that opera so. damn. much. The ENO production I saw two years was one of the great nights I've had in an opera house and among the many reasons to be bummed about the Gerard Mortier mess at NYCO was that production was going to be in his first season.
Does beauty lead to wisdom, Phaedrus?
Yes, but through the senses.
Can poets take this way then
For senses lead to passion, Phaedrus.
Passion leads to knowledge
Knowledge to forgiveness
To compassion with the abyss.
