    “Romeo. Peace, peace, Mercutio, peace!
    Thou talk’st of nothing.
    Mercutio. True, I talk of dreams,
    Which are the children of an idle brain,
    Begot of nothing but vain fantasy,
    Which is as thin of substance as the air,
    And more inconstant than the wind.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “I found a dimpled spider, fat and white,
    On a white heal-all, holding up a moth
    Like a white piece of rigid satin cloth—
    Assorted characters of death and blight”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “That celebrated,
    Cultivated
    Underrated
    Nobleman,
    The Duke of Plaza-Toro!”
