"Human suffering is as much a permanent phenomenon on our planet as the tides and the polar ice caps, and from this little satellite of our dwindling sun endless wails of woe and terror always have, and always will, come from the ululant throats of suffering humanity, whose lamentations and screams forever rise upward into the unheeding atmosphere and die away in the cold infinity beneath the pitiless stars."
Remember, remember the 5th of November... SBPDL wrote a piece entitled, "Waiting Until Middle School to Start Freak Dancing", and we thought we had seen it all. A reader told us the video that accompanies that clip came from the Dominican Republic.
The clip below is difficult to understand (it comes from somewhere in America), so we'll leave it for your written dissection.
We upload another video for your enjoyment, the beautiful Clair De Lune.
Read the quotation while listening to the second video we have uploaded, after watching the interesting first clip. Remember where you are when you watch these two clips and realize the Mad World that we find ourselves living in and that "Sophocles heard it long ago on the Aegean, and it brought into his mind the turbid ebb and flow of human misery..."
