What Christian will be so irreligious, to bring up his son in that course of life, which by all probability and necessity, coget ad turpia, enforcing to sin, will entangle him in simony and perjury, when as the poet said, Invitatus ad hæc aliquis de ponte negabit: a beggar's brat taken from the bridge where he sits a begging, if he knew the inconvenience, had cause to refuse it." This being thus, have not we fished fair all this while, that are initiate divines, to find no better fruits of our labours, hoc est cur palles, cur quis non prandeat hoc est? do we macerate ourselves for this? Is it for this we rise so early all the year long? "Leaping" (as he saith) "out of our beds, when we hear the bell ring, as if we had heard a thunderclap." If this be all the respect, reward and honour we shall have, frange leves calamos, et scinde Thalia libellos: let us give over our books, and betake ourselves to some other course of life to what end should we study?” per annum, but we must pay to the patron for the lease of a life (a spent and out-worn life) either in annual pension, or above the rate of a copyhold, and that with the hazard and loss of our souls, by simony and perjury, and the forfeiture of all our spiritual preferments, in esse and posse, both present and to come. If by this price of the expense of time, our bodies and spirits, our substance and patrimonies, we cannot purchase those small rewards, which are ours by law, and the right of inheritance, a poor parsonage, or a vicarage of 50 l. “We that are bred up in learning, and destinated by our parents to this end, we suffer our childhood in the grammar-school, which Austin calls magnam tyrannidem, et grave malum, and compares it to the torments of martyrdom when we come to the university, if we live of the college allowance, as Phalaris objected to the Leontines,, needy of all things but hunger and fear, or if we be maintained but partly by our parents' cost, do expend in unnecessary maintenance, books and degrees, before we come to any perfection, five hundred pounds, or a thousand marks.

The Anatomy of Melancholy: What It Is, With All the Kinds, Causes, Symptoms, Prognostics, and Several Cures of It in Three Partitions With Their Several Sections, Members, and Subsections, Philosophically, Medicinally, Historically Opened and Cut Up, V For my part I am one of the number-one of the many-I do not deny it.” Twice a year we stretch out wits out and set them to sale after great toil we attain nothing…What a glut of books! Who can read them? As already, we shall have a vast Chaos and confusion of Books, we are oppressed with them, our eyes ache with reading, our fingers with turning. What a catalogue of new books this year, all his age (I say) have our Frankfurt Marts, our domestic Marts, brought out. Among so many thousand Authors you shall scarce find one by reading of whom you shall be any whit better, but rather much worse by which he is rather infected than any way perfected… Heretofore learning was graced by judicious scholars, but now noble sciences are vilified by base and illiterate scribblers, that either write for vain-glory, need, to get money, or as Parasites to flatter and collogue with some great men, they put out trifles, rubbish and trash. Also the whole love/hate relationship with Haruhi.“very man hath liberty to write, but few ability. Kyon-At first, seeing Mikuru undressed was an accident, but you know, saving pictures of her on the computer and mourning whenever he doesn't get to see her undressed? Yeah. Haruhi-Constantly sexually harasses Mikuru, and the show is pretty obviously setting up a romantic relationship between her and Kyon. Oh and Spoiler alert, you've been warned.

Now forgive my analysis, because I am horrible at remembering foreign names. In fact, it's pretty blatantly sexual (though not as bad as some anime, and they actually get laughs out of me.) In fact, most people behave sexually to two or more figures. However, I'd have to say it's not asexual. Previously the only two anime I've liked were FLCL and Cowboy Bebop (and that one, not even all the episodes could hold my interest.) But I found this one just silly enough with just enough weird stuff going on to keep my interest.

Well, I've watched this anime, and surprisingly-very surprisingly-I liked it.
