- 8215: St. Francis Of Assisi
- ... that for the first time in his young life, he did some serious pondering. He explored the age old problems, "What am I?", "Where do I come from?", "Where am I going", "What is this world?" and "What is love?". St. Francis was an Italian Catholic and a talented poet. As an Italian, his heart moved naturally to deep affection, love and enjoyment. As a poet, he could see right through ... future followers to follow. This "Rule of Life" was used at guiding his followers to walk in the footsteps of Christ. It was composed mainly of Gospel texts and a few precepts. Francis saw the world as this followers monastery. Rather than bind them to the gracefully controlled arch of monastic discipline, he was inspired by God and by the needs of his times to send them into the frightfully disorganized world. If the world was their arch, their bodies were their cells. Francis believed food and clothing were not the problem, since God would assist them through their expedition.

- 8217: Hamlet 4
- ... amazing, contradictory, unsettled, mocking nature of that mind, as it is torn by disappointment and positive love, as Hamlet seeks both acceptance and punishment, action and stillness, and wishes for consummation and annihilation within a world he perceives to be against him. He can be abruptly silent or vicious; he is capable of wild laughter and tears, and also playing polite and sane. The narrative is a kind of mystery and ... that he cannot speak to them with honesty, because they themselves are dishonest in their intents. Honesty resonates as a theme in Hamlet because nothing is, as it seems in Denmark. The King deceives the world and pretends a legitimacy he does not have; Hamlet deceives the court by feigning madness; Polonius, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern all try to deceive Hamlet into revealing why he is distraught, and no one knows what is truth and what is a lie.
