Quote Of The Day: Seamus Heaney

"W.B. Yeats is a mountain range on the horizon under which I live." -Seamus Heaney, when asked how he feels he fits in with W.B. Yeats For any of you pseudo-wannabe literature dorks like myself, Nobel laureate Seamus Heaney came to Mary Immaculate to read some of his poetry and field some questions this afternoon in a packed lecture hall. I'd never read any of his work, other than his translation of Beowolf, but he's a literary icon over here and is regarded as one of the best known poets in the English-speaking world today.
