We have to bring a favorite quote or poem or paragraph or whatever to give to another member of the workshop, who will then share that quote with the class. I thought about it for a while - Romeo and Juliet? "The Jabberwocky"? A little Edith Wharton?
To hell with it. I love all of those, but I love something else more.
This shit is poignant. People need to listen. There is one line in all of literature that fully expresses the seriousness of the situation, and that one line is what I will share with the class this week. The rest of the class will no doubt bring in super important messages, but none will be as vital to the survival of the human race as mine.
My quote:
"Listen, and understand. That terminator is out there. It can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are dead." -Kyle Reese
