    “But I, being man, can kiss
    And bed-spread-eagle too;
    All flesh shall come to this,
    Being less than angel is,
    Yet higher far in bliss
    As it entwines with you.”
    —William Robert Rodgers (1909–1969)

    “The public history of modern art is the story of conventional people not knowing what they are dealing with.”
