“When a thought of Plato becomes a thought to me,when a truth that fired the soul of Pindar fires mine, time is no more. When I feel that we two meet in a perception, that our two souls are tinged with the same hue, and do as it were run into one, why should I measure degrees of latitude, why should I count Egyptian years?”

“Lancaster bore him such a little town,
Such a great man. It doesnt see him often
Of late years, though he keeps the old homestead
And sends the children down there with their mother
To run wild in the summer a little wild.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
“He werent no saintbut at Jedgment
Id run my chance with Jim,
Longside of some pious gentlemen
That wouldnt shook hands with him.

And went for it, thar an then:
And Christ aint a-goin to be too hard
On a man that died for me.”
—John Milton Hay (18381905)
