eternal sunshine

1 Nov 2009

[Mary reads to Dr. Mierzwiak out of "Bartlett's Familiar Quotations"; the lines are from Alexander Pope's poem "Eloisa to Abelard"]
How happy is the blameless vestal's lot!
The world forgetting, by the world forgot
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!
Each pray'r accepted, and each wish resign'd.


/Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

Hahahaha, Funny thing is I never bothered for the whole poem :P. Didn't even realise it was an entire poem, I thought it was a quote.
