"Outside of literary study, life has no meaning or attraction for him...he is adapted for nothing else. You may make up your mind to that."
--Written to C. S. Lewis' father by his tutor
How convenient to be adapted only for literary study! I feel especially jealous of Jack as I wade through endless college applications, barely able to read and study anything else, ironically enough. Yet, I know that at the end of this tunnel are literary studies galore, so I can't complain. Must hang on for a few more weeks and get my intellectual sustenance in the meantime by filling out financial aid forms.
