"Of course, no matter how keenly, how admirably, a story,
a piece of music, a picture is discussed and analyzed, there
will be minds that remain blank and spines that remain
unkindled. "To take upon us the mystery of things"---what
King Lear so wistfully says for himself and for Cordelia---
this is my suggestion for everyone who takes art seriously."

    --Nabokov on Kafka in _Lectures On Literature_

Insight to what's going on
Information keeps us strong
What you don't know can hurt you bad
Take it from me you'll be walkin around sad
Cryin for a better day
Until you educate for a better way
So if you wanna be in control
Ya gotta get yourself in the know

    --Janet Jackson
