THE LITTLE EARTHQUAKES
SHAKESPEARE'S SONNET 121
'Tis better to be vile than vile esteem'd,
When not to be receives reproach of being,
And the just pleasure lost which is so deem'd
Not by our feeling but by others' seeing:
For why should others false adulterate eyes
Give salutation to my sportive blood?
Or on my frailties why are frailer spies,
Which in their wills count bad what I think good?
No, I am that I am, and they that level
At my abuses reckon up their own:
I may be straight, though they themselves be bevel;
By their rank thoughts my deeds must not be shown;
Unless this general evil they maintain,
All men are bad, and in their badness reign.
General meaning:
under no circumstance will I tolerate hypocrisy. I will not defend the indefensible in myself but will admit the truth of my errors
The Artist will not submit to the judgment of those with false eyes nor let them make evil what he holds to be good

Sounds Like:
I think I'd rather be known as sounding new with a hue of the old times, a real sense of my life, because a life is grand when you think about it.
