    “The progress
    Is permanent like the preordained bulk
    Of the First National Bank
    Like fish sauce, but agreeable.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “As to spelling the very frequent word though with six letters instead of two, it is impossible to discuss it, as it is outside the range of common sanity. In comparison such a monstrosity as phlegm for flem is merely disgusting.”
