    And the Harvard students in the brick
    hallowed houses studied Sappho in cement rooms.
    And this Sappho danced on the grass
    and danced and danced and danced.
    It was a death dance.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    When Titian was mixing brown madder,
    His model was posed up a ladder.
    Said Titian, “That position
    Calls for coition,”
    So he lept up the ladder and had her.
    Anonymous.

    I need not tell you of the inadequacy of the American shipping marine on the Pacific Coast.... For this reason it seems to me that there is no subject to which Congress can better devote its attention in the coming session than the passage of a bill which shall encourage our merchant marine in such a way as to establish American lines directly between New York and the eastern ports and South American ports, and both our Pacific Coast ports and the Orient and the Philippines.
    William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
