You said it.
>There is no music for me in Eliot.
FOR YOU. As I keep saying, everybody has an opinion. I happen to like them
both, and so keep trying to get you to do the same, which is not my right.
The opinion is personal.
In an attempt to make the peace, I will now quote from my favoriet Yeats.
.........................
The unpurged images of day recede;
The Emperor's drunken soldiery are abed;
Night resonance recedes, night-walkers' song
After great cathedral gong;
A starlit or a moonlit dome disdains
All that man is,
All mere complexities,
The fury and the mire of human veins.
---From BYZANTIUM

"Here's the gist of what they mean."
--W.B.Yeats, UNDER BEN BULBEN
"That is not it at all,
That is not what I meant, at all."
---T.S.Eliot, THE LOVE SONG OF J.ALFRED PRUFROCK
