Dead Poets Society written by Tom Schulman Mr Keating: In my class, you will learn to think for yourselves again You will learn to savor words and languages No matter what anybody tells you, words and ideas can change the world I see that look in Mr Pitts' eyes like 19th century literature has nothing to with going to business school or medical school, right? Maybe You may agree and think yes, we should study our Mr Pritcher and learn our rhyme and meter and go quietly about the business of achieving other ambitions Well, I have a secret for you Huddle Up Huddle UP! We don't read and write poetry because it's cute We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race And the human race is filled with passion Medicine, law, business these are all noble pursuits necessary to sustain life But poetry, beauty, romance, and love; these are what we stay alive for To quote from Whitman "Oh me, Oh life of the question of these recurring Of the endless trains of the faithless of cities filled with the foolish What good amid these? Oh me, Oh life." "Answer that you are here and life exists You are here Life exists, and identity The powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse." The powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse What will your verse be? 235 words COMPILED JUAN CARLOS DAVID Dead Poets Society written by Tom Schulman mǺst=ǩ kȹiət≥sǺŋ | Ǻn Ǻnm͜ maǺ maǺ kɪǼǡəs | ju wǺǻ lǬən tsǩ θǺŋȤ(k) fǩ jǤəseǻvʟzʟ ǩDZʟen | ju wǺǻ ǩn(d) wǺǻ lǬən tsǩ seǺvʟǩ wǬədʟzʟ ǩn( læŋDZʟwǺdʟȢʟǺzʘ| nǩȚ nǩȚ mæt mæt≥sǩ wǢt≥s enibʟǢdʟi tȹeǻzʟȢʟȢ˛ʟ ju | wǬədʟzʟ ǩnd aǺdǺǩzʘ kçæn tȓeǺnd Í wǬəǻdʘ | aǺ tȓeǺndÍ ȓeǺndȢÍ ðǩ aǺ siə ðæȤ(tɪ) (tɪ) lȚkxx Ǻnm͜ mǺst=ǩ pȹǺȤ(t)s aǺzʘ |laǺ |laǺȤ(kⁿ) (kⁿ) naǺnt naǺntsi:nŒ i:nθ senȤ(t)ȓǩȉi lǺtʓȉǩȤ(t)ȓǩ Ƕæzʟ nȜθ nȜθǺŋ tsǩ du: wǺð wǺð DZǩ(Ț)Ǻŋ tsǩ bǺzʟnǩs sk=uəǻ | Ǥə medʟǺkùǻʜ k ǻʜ sk=uəǻ | ȉaǺȤ(tʍ) | meǺbʟi ju me( me(Ǻ) ǩDZȉiə ǩnʝ θǺŋȤ(k) jes | wi ȓȚdʘ st=Ȝdʟi a( a(Ț)ǩ mǺst=ǩ pȉʐɽǺȤ(t)ȓǩȉ (t)ȓǩȉ ǩn(d) lǬən a(Ț)ǩ ȉaǺm ǩnm ͜ mi:t mi:t≥sǩȉ ǩŋ͜ ǩŋ DZʟǩȚ kȝa( kȝa(Ǻ)ǩtɪli ǩbʟaȚȤ(tʝ) ðǩ bʟǺzʟnǩs ǩvʟ ǩtȓiəvʟǺŋ ȜðÍ Ȝðǩȉ͜ ǩȉ æmbʟǺȓnʜzʘ | weǻ | aǺ Ƕævʟ ǩ ǩȉ siək siəkȉǺ əkȉǺ>(t) (t)Ȥ(pʝ)͜ fǤ: fǤ: ju | hȜdʟɪlʜ ȜȤpʍ | hȜdʟɪlʜ ȜȤpʍ | wi dʟǩȚnʓȤ(tʓ) ȉiədʟ ǩnʓ ȉaǺ>(t´) kçuəəȤ(tʍ) | wi ȉiədʟ ǩnʓ (t )Ȥ(p´)͜ pȹǩ( pȹǩ(Ț)Ǻtʓȉi bʟǺkȹǢzʟ ǺȤ(t)s kçu ȉaǺ>(t´) (t )Ȥ(p´)͜ pȹǩ( pȹǩ(Ț)Ǻtʓȉi bʟǺkȹǢzʟ wi ǩ membʟǩz ǩvʟ ðʟǩ hçuəmǩnʓ ȉeǺs| ȉeǺs| ǩnʝ ðǩ hçuəmǩnʓ ȉeǺs Ǻzʘ fǺǻdb͜˛ wǺð pȹæȓnʜ | medʘsnʜ | lǤə | bǺzʟnǩs | ðiəzʟ ǩȉ Ǥəǻ nǩȚbʟɪǻʜ pȈǩsjuəȤ(t)s nesǩsȉi nesǩsȉi t≥sǩ bjuət ət≥si | ȉǩȚmæns sǩst=eǺn laǺf | bǩ>(t´) (t )Ȥ(p´)͜ pȹǩ( pȹǩ(Ț)Ǻtʓȉi | bju ȉǩȚmæns | = s ǩn( ǩn(d) lȜvʘ | ðiəzʟ ǩ wǢ>(t)Ȥ(p) (p)͜ wi st e(Ǻ) ǩlaǺvʘ fǤə | t ǩ kȝǩȚ>(t)Ȥ(pʝ)͜ fȉǩm wǺ>(tß) (t )Ȥ(pß)͜ mǩn ǩȚ miə | ǩȚ laǺf ǩvʟ ðʟǩ kȝestȓǩn ǩvʟ ðʟiəzʟ ȉǺkȹǬəȉǺŋ | ǩvʟ ðʟi endʟɪlǺs tʓȉʐɽeǺnzʟ ǩvʟ ðʟǩ feǺ feǺθlǺs ǩvʘ sǺt≥sǺzʘ fǺǻdb͜˛ wǺð ðǩ ðǩ fuəlǺȓ | wǢȤ(t)s DZȚdʟ ǩmǺdʝ ðʟiəzʘ | ǩȚ miə | ǩȚ laǺf | ǡənsǩ | ðǩȤ(t)ȓu ǩ ǶǺǩȉ ǩn( ǩn(d) laǺf ǺDZʟzʟǺsts | ju ǩ ǶǺǩ | laǺf ǺDZʟzʟǺsts | ǩnd aǺdentsǺt≥si | ðǩ pȹa( pȹa(Ț)ǩfǻʜ pɪǼeǺ DZʟǩȚzʟ Ǣn ǩn ju meǺ kxǩnʓtȉʓ ɽʐǺbjuət≥s ǩ vǬəs | ðǩ pȹa( pȹa(Ț)ǩfǻʜ pɪǼeǺ DZʟǩȚzʟ Ǣn | ǩn ju meǺ kxǩnʓtȉʓ ɽʐǺbjuət≥s ǩ vǬəs | wǢ>(t)Ȥ(p) jǤ: vʟǬəs bi: bi: | (p)͜ wǺl jǤ: COMPILED JUAN CARLOS DAVID
