“I have given suck, and know
How tender ‘tis to love the babe that milks me;

Have plucked my nipple from his boneless gums
And dashed the brains out, had I so sworn
As you have done to this.”

They will give you an education the way the banks will give you money—provided you can prove to their satisfaction that you don’t need it.”
—Peter De Vries (b. 1910)

Warms youth and seed and burns the seeds of age;”
