• Spring, of all seasons most gratuitous,
  Is fold of untaught flower, is race of water,
  Is earth's most multiple, excited daughter;
  And those she has least use for see her best,
  Their paths grown craven and circuitous,
  Their visions mountain-clear, their needs immodest.

• Today's baseball players are walking conglomerates. They have fantastic salaries, multiple investments, but we had one thing they don't have today, the train ride.

• A song playing comprises a very specific and vivid set of memory cues. Because the multiple-trace memory models assume that context is encoded along with memory traces, the music that you have listened to at various times of your life is cross-coded with the events of those times. That is, the music is linked to events of the time, and those events are linked to the music.
