“This happy breed of men, this little world,
This precious stone set in the silver sea,
Which serves it in the office of a wall,
Or as a moat defensive to a house,
Against the envy of less happier lands,
This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

—Arlie Hochschild (20th century)
“The scientific imagination always restrains itself within the limits of probability.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

—Heywood Broun (1888–1939)
“On the breasts of a barmaid in Sale
Were tattooed the prices of ale;
And on her behind
For the sake of the blind
Was the same information in Braille.”
