Gnomic Utterances. These are traditional, and are set at the head of each section of the Guidebook. The reason for them is lost in the mists of History. They are culled by the Management from a mighty collection of wise sayings probably compiled by a SAGE—probably called Ka’a Orto’o—some centuries before the Tour begins. The Rule is that no Utterance has anything whatsoever to do with the section it precedes. Nor, of course, has it anything to do with Gnomes.

I like watching them, and reading them, and following them, and even participating in them in my role as an intelligent and ethical layperson. But as a literary critic it's not why I'm reading or writing -- that is to say, my interest is as an educated layperson, not as a scholar.
Also, I adore your icon.
