You are of course right not to take those thirty pieces of silver offered by Messrs Faber and the other Faber, you know what sort of trouble that can get you into.
My favourite line, aside from all the wonderful philosophical allusions, is "All the ancient lawns and grasses prismed in the teacher's glasses" -- this opens a whole world of possible interpretations, chief among which (in my head at least) is the refraction of history through a single eye and the ways that this view may either taint or illuminate others. For the record, "that wanker Soren" is one of my favourites... I'm ever so dull though...
