Nothing To Say

I got nothing to say...nothing but the one thing, as the song goes.

From the opening pages of Norman Cantor's The Civilization of the Middle Ages, I quote St. Bernard of Clairvaux:

"There are some who wish to learn for no other reason than that they may be looked upon as learned, which is a ridiculous vanity, ... Others desire to learn that they may morally instruct others; that is love. And lastly, there are some who wish to learn that they may be themselves edified; and that is prudence."

Those expecting a real entry, well, I'll probably talk about Oblivion or something in a time. That time is not now.

I'd be more impressed with some Peter Lombard.
