  • The Sequel to Rhetoric 101:

    101 101

    “A SINGLE VERSE by Rimbaud,”
    writes Dominique de
    Villepin,
    the new French Prime Minister,
    “shines like a powder trail
    on
    a day’s horizon.
    It sets it ablaze all at once,
    explodes all limits,
    draws the eyes
    to other heavens.”

    – Ben Macintyre,
    The London Times, June 4:

    When Rimbaud Meets Rambo


    “Room 101 was the place where
    your worst fears were realised
    in George Orwell’s classic
     Nineteen Eighty-Four.

    [101 was also]
    Professor Nash’s office number
      in the movie ‘A Beautiful Mind.’”
