    After all anybody is as their land and air is. Anybody is as the sky is low or high. Anybody is as there is wind or no wind there.

    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

    “Oh, where have you been, Billy boy, Billy boy?
    Oh, where have you been, charming Billy?”
    “I’ve been to seek a wife,
    She’s the joy of my life,
    She’s a young thing, and cannot leave her mother.”
    —Unknown. Billy Boy (l. 1–5)
