    We are all conceived in close prison; in our mothers’ wombs, we are close prisoners all; when we are born, we are born but to the liberty of the house; prisoners still, though within larger walls; and then all our life is but a going out to the place of execution, to death.
    John Donne (c. 1572–1631)

    I learned early in life that you get places by having the right enemies.
    —Bishop John Spong (b. 1931)

    For you alone I ride the ring,
    For you I wear the blue;
    For you alone I strive to sing,
    O tell me how to woo!
    —Robert Graham (1735–1797)
