There can never be any solid friendship between individuals, or union
between communities that is worth the name , unless the parties be
persuaded of each other's honesty, and be generally congenial the one to
the other; since from difference in feeling springs also difference in
conduct.
Thucydides (Chapter IV), The History of the Peloponnesian War
A commonplace book: an old-fashioned literary diary for recording interesting items from reading you've done. I use mine to record snippets from reading, conversation and life in general. (The early 2003 entries are from a period some years ago -- before the blog age -- when I tried an online commonplace book as a straight web page.)
