“It’s no go the picture palace, it’s no go the stadium,
It’s no go the country cot with a pot of pink geraniums.
It’s no go the Government grants, it’s no go the elections,
Sit on your arse for fifty years and hang your hat on a pension.”
—Louis MacNeice (1907–1963)

“Eloquence is a painting of thought; and thus those who, after having painted it, add something more, make a picture instead of a portrait.”
—Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
