    Far-off, most secret, and inviolate Rose,
    Enfold me in my hour of hours; where those

    Or in the wine-vat, dwell beyond the stir
    And tumult of defeated dreams....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Much of what Mr. Wallace calls his global thinking is, no matter how you slice it, still “globaloney.” Mr. Wallace’s warp of sense and his woof of nonsense is very tricky cloth out of which to cut the pattern of a post-war world.
    Clare Boothe Luce (1903–1987)

    I am a lantern—
    My head a moon
    Of Japanese paper, my gold beaten skin
    Infinitely delicate and infinitely expensive.
    Sylvia Plath (1932–1963)

    Soaked by the sparkling waters of America.
