    “The Prince but studies his companions
    Like a strange tongue, wherein, to gain the language,
    ‘Tis needful that the most immodest word
    Be looked upon and learnt, which once attained,
    Your highness knows, comes to no further use
    But to be known and hated.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “So let man consider of what he was created;
    he was created of gushing water
    issuing between the loins and the breast-bones.”
    —Qur’An. The Night-Star, 86:5-7, ed. Arthur J. Arberry (1955)
