James Joyce Quotes

Through This Image He Had A Glimpse Of A Strange Dark Cavern Of Speculation But At Once Turned Away From It, Feeling That It Was Not Yet The Hour To Enter It. But The Nightshade Of His Friend's Listlessness Seemed To Be Diffusing In The Air Around Him A Tenuous And Deadly Exhalation And He Found Himself Glancing From One Casual Word To Another On His Right Or Left In Stolid Wonder That They Had Been So Silently Emptied Of Instantaneous Sense Until Every Mean Shop Legend Bound His Mind Like The Words Of A Spell And His Soul Shrivelled Up, Sighing With Age As He Walked On In A Lane Among Heaps Of Dead Language. His Own Consciousness Of Language Was Ebbing From His Brain And Trickling Into The Very Words Themselves Which Set To Band And Disband Themselves In Wayward Rhythms:
The Ivy Whines Upon The Wall
And Whines And Twines Upon The Wall
The Ivy Whines Upon The Wall
The Yellow Ivy On The Wall
Ivy, Ivy Up The Wall.
Did Any One Ever Hear Such Drivel?
