In the radio interview <br />the former Classics student <br />asked me about the similarity between <br />my writings and those of Aristotle. <br />I said I didn't know there was such a similarity. <br />When she asked how useful my Sociology degree had <br />been, <br />I answered that it had taught me how to felt tip <br />my idea of a potato on to a sheet of transparent plastic, <br />then compare it with the real world <br />by placing it over an existing potato, <br />and she said, 'that's Plato'.<br /><br />John Hegley<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/classic-4/
