    Bible: New Testament, Mark 5:15.

    What is more pretentiously
    useless
    or about which
    we more pride ourselves?
    It leads as often as not
    to our undoing.
    —William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)

    A tanned skin is something more than respectable, and perhaps olive is a fitter color than white for a man,—a denizen of the woods. “The pale white man!” I do not wonder that the African pitied him.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
