Of the hunter’s moon, that hung between the night and the day,
To dream of women whose beauty was folded in dismay,
Even in an old story, is a burden not to be borne.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“So tedious is this day
As is the night before some festival
To an impatient child that hath new robes
And may not wear them.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“It was a bright, cold day in April and the clocks were striking thirteen.”
—George Orwell (1903–1950)
“Science is unflinchingly deterministic, and it has begun to force its determinism into morals. On some shining tomorrow a psychoanalyst may be put into the box to prove that perjury is simply a compulsion neurosis, like beating time with the foot at a concert or counting the lampposts along the highway.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
