00:00:01.800 --> 00:00:10.080 align:middle line:84%
I have a lot of very tiny
poems that are sayings,

00:00:10.080 --> 00:00:17.970 align:middle line:84%
like little sayings
and short little poems

00:00:17.970 --> 00:00:22.620 align:middle line:84%
by a mythical figure called
the Sage of Apple Valley.

00:00:22.620 --> 00:00:30.600 align:middle line:84%
And for instance, one of the
things that the Sage says is,

00:00:30.600 --> 00:00:35.370 align:middle line:84%
"If poetry is a refuge for
snobs, any poet turning out

00:00:35.370 --> 00:00:37.515 align:middle line:84%
human is in the
nature of a miracle."

00:00:37.515 --> 00:00:44.060 align:middle line:90%


00:00:44.060 --> 00:00:49.490 align:middle line:84%
Said the Sage, "You are the
product of 1,000 lifetimes

00:00:49.490 --> 00:00:53.580 align:middle line:84%
and all you can accomplish
in this life is very little,

00:00:53.580 --> 00:00:56.600 align:middle line:84%
but to do that you have to
work as hard as you can."

00:00:56.600 --> 00:01:01.800 align:middle line:90%


00:01:01.800 --> 00:01:05.670 align:middle line:84%
The Sage of Apple Valley
said, "You talk about whores,

00:01:05.670 --> 00:01:08.655 align:middle line:84%
they are being paid for it,
you are giving it away."

00:01:08.655 --> 00:01:14.530 align:middle line:90%


00:01:14.530 --> 00:01:18.880 align:middle line:84%
Said the Sage, "You cannot
die holding on anywhere."

00:01:18.880 --> 00:01:23.280 align:middle line:90%


00:01:23.280 --> 00:01:25.920 align:middle line:84%
The sage of Apple
Valley said, "I've

00:01:25.920 --> 00:01:29.310 align:middle line:84%
got your number, if you could
be raped over your protests,

00:01:29.310 --> 00:01:31.185 align:middle line:84%
you would know that you
were really desired."

00:01:31.185 --> 00:01:35.050 align:middle line:90%


00:01:35.050 --> 00:01:36.520 align:middle line:90%
That's really enough of those.

00:01:36.520 --> 00:01:39.640 align:middle line:84%
Oh, here's what I like,
said the Sage, "Being all

00:01:39.640 --> 00:01:44.050 align:middle line:84%
here is like subjecting
yourself to an intense tickling

00:01:44.050 --> 00:01:45.205 align:middle line:90%
that you can't stand."

00:01:45.205 --> 00:01:49.740 align:middle line:90%


00:01:49.740 --> 00:01:53.670 align:middle line:84%
This Sage of Apple Valley
said, "better 1,000 times over

00:01:53.670 --> 00:01:55.890 align:middle line:84%
to learn how not
to hurt those you

00:01:55.890 --> 00:01:59.100 align:middle line:84%
love than to spend a
lifetime alleviating

00:01:59.100 --> 00:02:01.490 align:middle line:90%
the sufferings of mankind."

00:02:01.490 --> 00:02:02.489 align:middle line:90%
