On page 12, the play starts over again, reminding us of the eternal return.
On page 13, I though Sabina was echoing a comment sentiment about FW:
"I hate this play and every word in it. As for me, I don't understand a single word of it, anyway--all about the troubles the human race has gone through, there's a subject for you."
What she doesn't realize is that Finnegans Wake has the troubles of the human race, just not in a easily deciphered form.
pg. 78:
"What's life anyway? Except for two things, pleasure and power,"
This sounds a lot like the bad guy in Haroun.
The speech on page 85 is one of the better speeches ever, in my opinion.
Finally, we've got page 109:
"That's all we do--always beginning again! Over and over again. Always beginning again."
Good stuff.
