    That he has made that hollow face of his
    More plain to the mind’s eye than any face
    But that of Christ.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Good resolutions are useless attempts to interfere with scientific laws. Their origin is pure vanity. Their result is absolutely nil. They give us, now and then, some of those luxurious sterile emotions that have a certain charm for the weak.... They are simply cheques that men draw on a bank where they have no account.”
    —Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
