a couple completely unrelated thought-provoking quotes

- the last stanza of Stephen Shu-ning Liu's poem, "My Father's Martial Art":
But don't retreat into night, my father.
Come down from the cliffs. Come
with a single Black Dragon Sweep and hush
this oncoming traffic with your hah, hah, hah.
- from John Guillory's "Evaluation Scholarship in the Humanities: Principles and Procedures" (ADE Bulletin, Spring 2005): "Publication thus makes a claim to be scholarship, and not just a means to make public scholarly work."
