| Bio: | LAWRENCE
Oh, thanks, Dryden. This is going to be
fun.
DRYDEN
Lawrence, only two kinds of creature get
fun of the desert: Bedouins and gods, and
you're neither. Take it from me; for
ordinary men, it's a burning, fiery
furnace.
LAWRENCE
No, Dryden. It's going to be fun.
DRYDEN
It is recognised that you have a funny
sense of fun.
"He thought for a time of piercing orations startling multitudes and of books wrung from his heart. In the gloom of his misery, his eyesight proclaimed that all mankind were bowing to wrong and ridiculous idols. He said that if some all powerful joker should take them away in the night, and leave only manufactured shadows falling upon the bended heads, mankind would go on counting the hollow beads of their progress until the shriveling of the fingers. He was a-blaze with desire to change. He saw himself, a sun-lit figure on a peak, pointing with a true unchangeable gesture. 'There!' And all men could see and no man would falter."
-The Red Badge of Courage, Stephen Crane |
