“—Here, the flag snaps in the glare and silence
Of the unbroken ice. I stand here,
The dogs bark, my beard is black, and I stare
At the North Pole. . .
And now what? Why, go back.
Turn as I please, my step is to the south.”
—Randall Jarrell (1914–1965)

—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Action is at bottom a swinging and flailing of the arms to regain one’s balance and keep afloat.”
