Casanova

“An ancient author tells us somewhere, with the tone of a pedagogue, if you have not done anything worthy of being recorded, at least write something worthy of being read.”

-- Casanova, The Memoirs

Casanova need not have worried about leading an interesting life. It would also seem that he has no need to chide himself for want of eloquence. I still have yet to break out of the preface, but his memoirs is looking like a veritable masterpiece. I am glad I caught onto it. Sylvia Plath is a special flower, but I need some high-testosterone in my mix, and Casanova certainly provides us with that.
