He has taken the wind out of their sails,—the little wind they had,—and they may as well lie to and repair.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“We all have the republican spirit in our veins, like syphilis in our bones. We are democratized and venerealized.”
—Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)
“At every party there are two kinds of people—those who want to go home and those who don’t. The trouble is, they are usually married to each other.”

—Bill Bryson (b. 1951)
