    “Now Morn her rosy steps in th’ eastern clime
    Advancing, sowed the earth with orient pearl.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    “There is something about poverty that smells like death. Dead dreams dropping off the heart like leaves in a dry season and rotting around the feet; impulses smothered too long in the fetid air of underground caves. The soul lives in a sickly air. People can be slave-ships in shoes.”
    —Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)

    “There are confessable agonies, sufferings of which one can positively be proud. Of bereavement, of parting, of the sense of sin and the fear of death the poets have eloquently spoken. They command the world’s sympathy. But there are also discreditable anguishes, no less excruciating than the others, but of which the sufferer dare not, cannot speak. The anguish of thwarted desire, for example.”
    —Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
