    Resolve to win—period—because that is the American system. You take either side—it doesn’t even matter which one—and you go on the attack.

    You that do search for every purling spring
    Which from the ribs of old Parnassus flows,
    And every flower, not sweet perhaps, which grows
    Near thereabouts into your poesy wring;
    You that do dictionary’s method bring
    Into your rhymes, running in rattling rows;
    —Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)
