BRAVE NEW WORLD EXAM and "REITZ WRITES" CHECK ON TUESDAY



As promised, here are some sample quotes from tomorrow's objective exam over BNW. Do you know who says them?


"Well, the next day there was a search. But we couldn't find her. She must have fallen into a gully somewhere; or been eaten by a mountain lion. Ford knows. Anyhow, it was horrible. It upset me very much at the time. More than it ought to have done."


"Oh my dear, my dear. If you knew how glad--after all these years! A civilized face. Yes, and civilized clothes. Because I thought I should never see a piece of real acetate silk again."


"Well, I'd rather be unhappy than have the sort of false, lying happiness you were having here."


"Happiness has got to be paid for. Your paying for it, Mr. Watson--paying because you happen to be too much interested in beauty. I was too much interested in truth; I paid too."


"He has proved himself an enemy of Society, a subverter, ladies and gentlemen, of all Order and Stability, a conspirator against Civilization itself. For this reason, I propose to dismiss him, to dismiss him with ignominy from the post he has held in this Centre;"

Also, remember to bring 35 pages of your scrapbook.
