One of Michael's favorite quotes is:"What Then?
His chosen comrades thought at school
He must grow a famous man;
He thought the same and lived the rule,
All his twenties crammed with toil;
'What then? sang Plato's ghost, `what then?`
Everything he wrote was read,
After certain years he won
Sufficient money for his need,
Friends that have been friends indeed;
`What then? sang Plato's ghost, `what then?`
All his happier dreams came true --
A small old house, wife, daughter, son,
Grounds where plum and cabbage grew,
poets and Wits about him drew;
`What then? sang Plato's ghost, `what then?`
`The work is done` grown old he thought,
`According to my boyish plan;
Let the fools rage, I swerved in nought,
Something to perfection brought'
but louder sang the ghost, ` What then?`
--W.B. Yeats (1937)
"I am not young enough to...Expand for more
know everything."
--Oscar Wilde
IF THE WORLD WAS CRAZY
If the world was crazy, you know what I'd eat?
A big slice of soup and a whole quart of meat,
A lemonade sandwich, and then I might try
Some roasted ice cream or a bicycle pie,
A nice notebook salad, an underwear roast,
An omelet of hats and some crisp cardboard toast,
A thick malted milk made from pencils and daisies,
And that's what I'd eat if the world was crazy.
If the world was crazy, you know what I'd wear?
A chocolate suit and a tie of eclair,
Some marshmallow earmuffs, some licorice shoes,
And I'd read a paper of peppermint news.
I'd call the boys "Suzy" and I'd call the girls "Harry,"
I'd talk through my ears, and I would always carry
A paper umbrella for when it grew hazy
To keep in the rain, if the world was crazy.
If the world was crazy, you know what I'd do?
I'd walk on the ocean and swim in my shoe,
I'd fly through the ground and I'd skip through the air,
I'd run down the bathtub and bathe on the stair.
When I met somebody I'd say "G'bye, Joe,"
And when I was leaving--then I'd say "Hello."
And the greatest of men would be silly and lazy
So I would be king...if the world was crazy.
--Shel Silverstein(1974)".
