It’s that special time of the academic year when I’m so buried under work that I prioritize based not so much on who asked for something first, but on who I need to propitiate most.

No special class of persons is set apart for their performance. No special places are set apart for the performance. Desired objects are attained not by propitiating the favor of divine through sacrifice prayer and praise, but by ceremonies of resemblance between rite and effect.
