    Miss Mary Emerson is here,—the youngest person in Concord, though about eighty,—and the most apprehensive of a genuine thought; earnest to know of your inner life; most stimulating society; and exceedly witty withal. She says they called her old when she was young, and she has never grown any older. I wish you could see her.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The elephant sneezed
    And fell on his knees,
    And that was the end of the monk,
    the monk, the monk.
    —Unknown. Animal Fair. . .
