“This is the true joy in life, the being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one; the being thoroughly worn out before you are thrown on the scrap heap; the being a force of Nature instead of a feverish selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy.

—Elizabeth I (1533–1603)
“The award of a pure gold medal for poetry would flatter the recipient unduly: no poem ever attains such carat purity.”
