    “The final flat of the hoe’s approval stamp
    Is reserved for the bed of a few selected seed.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “Luckless is the country in which the symbols of procreation are the objects of shame, while the agents of destruction are honored! And yet you call that member your pudendum, or shameful part, as if there were anything more glorious than creating life, or anything more atrocious than taking it away.”
