    Only the flow matters; live and let live, love and let love. There is no point to love.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Publishers are notoriously slothful about numbers, unless they’re attached to dollar signs—unlike journalists, quarterbacks, and felony criminal defendents who tend to be keenly aware of numbers at all times.
