Hey Eric. Great to hear your voice. Well I did
talk a bit before
ending with the lines which you quote with expert memory. Yo. 1985:
Harry Ransom Award. That's 28 years ago!
OMG.
Love,
Doc

At the College of Liberal Arts graduation
ceremony in 1985 Doc
received a teaching award. He went to the podium, said thank you,
and recited these quotes, in order:
1. Nothing comes from nothing. (Lear, Lear)
2. It is required you awake your faith. (Hermione, Winters Tale)
3. Take pains, be perfect, adieu. (Bottom, Midsummer...)

Dearest Alice,
When I think of quotes and Doc, the one I always hear to this day
is,
SNUG
“Have you the lion's part written? pray you, if it
be, give it me, for I am slow of study.”
probably because I had such a miserable time memorizing lines.
However, I cannot recall Doc ever having used this quote towards me,
but I just assumed he was always thinking it when I flubbed my
part.. I continue to hear it in my head to this day, and in my
dreams, where I am always forgetting my lines, much to his
disappointment. But, I always hit my mark.
I found in some files, old mimeographed notices he sent before each
summer, and there I found some quotes he used in admonishing
incoming students. It was fun rereading these letters, definitely
yellowed with age. I wish I had saved them all.
“And so from hour to hour, we ripe and ripe.” AYLI 1976
EYRE. “Where be these boyes, these girles, these drabbs, these
scoundrels?” Shoemakers Holiday. Doc used this to open his first
letter to us all in 1976, and before if I am not mistaken. A type of
call to arms, to join. 1976
Look to thyself, thou art in jeopardy.” King John Always a nice
way to start a correspondence.
“But let the world rank me in register.” AC 1977
“ I will tell you the beginning; and if it please your
ladyships(lordships too), you may see the end, for the best is yet
to do…….” AYLI 1977- a rather hopeful way of seeing the future.
“Your own good thoughts excuse me, and farewell….” LLL 1975
“Rather say, I play the man I am.” Corliolanus 1976
“peace good pint pot, peace good ticklebrain.” A favorite sign off.
He mentions that his favorite song is “Ben” by Michael Jackson in
the letter, and I recall that
as well. Another place in 1977 he mentions that as he has matured,
he now favors “Clouds” by Joni.
These may or not be helpful, and I am sure there are so many others.
I look forward to seeing you for the big day.
Jerald
