“At the earliest ending of winter,
In March, a scrawny cry from outside
Seemed like a sound in his mind.
He knew that he heard it,
A bird’s cry, at daylight or before,
In the early March wind.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
“What does education often do? It makes a straight-cut ditch of a free, meandering brook.”
