“Never to have lived is best, ancient writers say;

The second best’s a gay goodnight and quickly turn away.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“As the few adepts in such things well know, universal morality is to be found in little everyday penny-events just as much as in great ones. There is so much goodness and ingenuity in a raindrop that an apothecary wouldn’t let it go for less than half-a-crown.”
—G.C. (Georg Christoph)
“Indeed the involuntary character of psychiatric treatment is at odds with the spirit and ethics of medicine itself.”
—Kate Millett (b. 1934)
