    "I feel my being dance from ear to ear."

That is a very nice line. Our internal perspective is pretty absurd when you think about it. Sometimes you feel keenly aware that you are sitting in a cockpit, and sometimes you can completely forget about it, and your mind moves into the moment of experience.

It's funny that the other Shakespeare I can recite is Hamlet's To Be or Not to Be soliloquy. I feel compelled to recite it if I am ever holding a skull, or if I am drunk. I suppose I think about death more than I should. :)
