“Every Morne from hence,
A brisk Cherub something sips,
Whose sacred influence
Adds sweetnes to his sweetest lips,
Then to his Musick, and his song
Tastes of his breakefast all day long.”

—George Canning (1770–1827)
“A day without an argument is like an egg without salt.”
—Angela Carter (1940–1992)
