"That truth should be silent I had almost forgot"--Enobarbus in ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA, back in Rome after having been too long in Egypt.--------- Melville's PIERRE, Book 4, chapter 5: "Something ever comes of all persistent inquiry; we are not so continually curious for nothing."

TLS at the ends of the earth--and the new difficulty of silencing truth
Access to TLS helps keep retired folks from being isolated. How good to send an email to London on 5/5/11 and then last night see that TLS has the letter online already, and in paper copy for those lucky enough to get the U S Mail fast! And the letter mentions the suppression of criticism of Fredson Bowers in earlier decades. It's great not to be silenced, after all.
