It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. It was 4th grade when I picked up this book…having been bored to tears with the other books in elementary school and being a huge book nerd, my 4th grade teacher and 5th grade teacher conspired to get me to memorize the first line of this very famous book. To this day, I can’t get past more than a couple of the best of’s…
I remember the last line of the book too, much easier for me to remember: It is a far, far better thing I do than I have ever done ; it is a far far better rest than I have ever known.”
