Teabagging is for poets

My wife drinks a lot of tea. Today she was drinking some Good Earth Tea, which has quotes on each tea bag. Hers was from French poet Paul Valery (1871 - 1945): "Books have the same enemies as people: fire, humidity, animals, weather, and their own content."

I believe Valery was also responsible for saying, "A poem is never finished, only abandoned," which comes to mind often as I write.

Oh, and speaking of teabagging... Only 118 shopping days left before Christmas (105 until Hanukkah).
