    “It was beginning winter,
    An in-between time,
    The landscape still partly brown:
    The bones of weeds kept swinging in the wind,
    Above the blue snow.”
    —Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)

    “I am told that Duclos’ book is not in vogue in Paris, and that it is being violently criticized, apparently because readers understand it; and being intelligible is no longer the fashion.”
    —Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
