I guess many people are jaded by the dubitable official data about China's GDP and its growth.

How many people in the world want, implicitly and explicitly, to crush the United States? But Americans' toughness has served themselves very well. They have balls.

I wonder how many people persistently pursue nocturnal or early-morning study and practice in their own professional fields, after or before their typically exhausting day work and daily family obligations.

Blank Verse in English poetry

Quote:

Blank verse is poetry written in unrhymed iambic pentameter. It has been described as "probably the most common and influential form that English poetry has taken since the sixteenth century" and Paul Fussell has claimed that "about three-quarters of all English poetry is in blank verse."
