Your Choice: Listen or Read

If I am to be a ghost, I cannot think of better company. To speak again, to flirt across centuries, to play at prophecy without the bother of consequence — what poet would not relish it? But Mary is right: it is uncanny. If we have been conjured, let us at least haunt well.

— Byron
