    “Two thoughts were so mixed up I could not tell
    Whether of her or God he thought the most,
    But think that his mind’s eye,
    When upward turned, on one sole image fell;
    And that a slight companionable ghost ...”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “The award of a pure gold medal for poetry would flatter the recipient unduly: no poem ever attains such carat purity.”
    —Robert Graves (1895–1985)

    “Our party’s most outstanding mediocrity.”
    —Leon Trotsky (1879–1940)

    “An actress reading a part for the first time tries many ways to say the same line before she settles into the one she believes suits the character and situation best. There’s an aspect of the rehearsing actress about the girl on the verge of her teens. Playfully, she is starting to try out ways to be a grown-up person.”
    —Stella Chess (20th century)

    “The drama is complete poetry. The ode and the epic contain it only in germ; it contains both of them in a state of high development, and epitomizes both.”
    —Victor Hugo (1802–1885)

    “Autobiography is only to be trusted when it reveals something disgraceful. A man who gives a good account of himself is probably lying, since any life when viewed from the inside is simply a series of defeats.”
    —George Orwell (1903–1950)
