“The custard is setting; meanwhile
I not only have my own history to worry about
But am forced to fret over insufficient details related to large
Unfinished concepts that can never bring themselves to the point
Of being, with or without my help, if any were forthcoming.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)

—A.P. Martinich (b. 1946)
“I have known a German Prince with more titles than subjects, and a Spanish nobleman with more names than shirts.”
