I completely agree with you there. I prefer Tennyson's "In Memorian A.A.H." to "Ulysses," but it was still very cool to see them referencing literature. There's also (pretty obvious) references to Machiavelli (a renegade response during Shepard's interview with Khalisah al-Jilani) and Mark Twain (Illusive Man at the end of the novel Mass Effect: Retribution). And in the Kasumi DLC, Donovan Hock somehow has Michelangelo's David in his private collection. BioWare isn't afraid to insert culture, be it literature or art, into ME for it, and I commend them highly for it. Great work guys!
