    “Inanimate objects are classified scientifically into three major categories—those that don’t work, those that break down and those that get lost.”

    “Over the tree-tops I float thee a song,
    Over the rising and sinking waves, over the myriad fields and the
    prairies wide,
    Over the dense-packed cities all and the teeming wharves and ways,
    I float this carol with joy, with joy to thee, O death,”
    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
