As we know,
There are known knowns.
There are things we know we know.
We also know
There are known unknowns.
That is to say
We know there are some things
We do not know.
But there are also unknown unknowns,
The ones we don't know
We don't know.

I don't know this Santayana chap too well but I assume he wasn't the type to capitalize every word.

14% out of possible 15%. Assignment was an English IB summative worth 15% of Three semesters of work. So that's like, 45% of my mark this semester?.

And found poetry:
