    “It was easy to recognize in him the anti-social animus of a born evangelist, but there was also something else—a kind of voluptuous delight in the shabby and preposterous, a perverted aestheticism like that of a latter-day movie or radio fan, a wild will to roll in and snuffle balderdash as a cat rolls in and snuffles catnip.”
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    “For the Eye altering alters all;
    The Senses roll themselves in fear
    And the flat Earth becomes a Ball.”
    —William Blake (1757–1827)

    “This is the last leaf
    in the year’s book.
    Now I come to grief
    as the earth’s breast goes hard and mean
    and hay is packed for the manger.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
