UselessTree: Unexpected Confucius sighting: Laurence Sterne, Tristram Shandy, vol v, chap 25 (1762) , makes reference to Confucius but perhaps only in a purposely mistaken way. A footnote by Sterne says that the storyteller means someone else other than the real Confucius. 1/

Kit_Travieso: As time goes on I become more convinced every day that Thomas Pynchon is the literary progeny of Laurence Sterne: the humorous tone, the digressions, character names, etc.

AusterityKitchn: March 18, a fecund day: Rudolf Diesel (yes, of the diesel engine), Neville Chamberlain, Edgar Cayce, and Wilfred Owen born; but intellectually fecund Laurence Sterne dies and, in 1871, the Commune uprising in Paris begins the brief rule of the socialist government.

DrDavidVernon: Laurence Sterne died 255 years ago today. Mahler was a big fan of Tristram Shandy, advising young musicians to study it, and Dostoyevsky, more than counterpoint. It was my immense pleasure to introduce Mahler’s granddaughter Marina to Sterne last year: she was instantly hooked!

DavidHeadViews: "They order, said I, this matter better in France." That was Laurence Sterne in 1768. He could justifiably make the same claim today over Puffin's absurd bowdlerization of Roald Dahl's works. Well done, Gallimard!

AlanNWhelan: I'm going down to Sydney today, to attend a wake for my friend. I won't be tweeting much today. He appreciated Laurence Sterne's gesture in "Tristram Shandy", when the loved character Yorick died and the author grieved the death by printing the next page all in mourning black.

IndigoMenaboni: My whole novel is meant to be a nod to Laurence Sterne’s shaggy dog story construct—the long joke without a punchline. I spend the entire book building to “hooking Bandit up” and in an instant it’s all over. Maybe I’m not as funny as I think I am. That can’t be it.

JohnSte40163279: Current mood: very Laurence Sterne, as he rails against the 'dirty planet' in which 'strange fatalities' rain down '"body blows" against the "delicate and fine-spun web" of life, all stage-managed, it seems, by a malignant spirit.'

Heis_Andrew: Laurence Sterne says: “A smile can add a thread to the very short plot of life” What the author says often happens to me during the day and I interpret the smile almost as strength. What do you think about that?
