    Václav Havel (b. 1936)

    Modern Western thought will pass into history and be incorporated in it, will have its influence and its place, just as our body will pass into the composition of grass, of sheep, of cutlets, and of men. We do not like that kind of immortality, but what is to be done about it?
    Alexander Herzen (1812–1870)

    What but design of darkness to appall?—
    If design govern in a thing so small.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
