“Sickness comes to us all, Mr. Dillon.... We never know when, we never know why, we never know how. The only blessed thing we know is it’ll come at the most inconvenient, unexpected time. Just when you’ve got tickets to the World Series. And that’s the way the permanent waves.”
—Donald E. Westlake (b. 1933)
“For often at Church I’ve seen the stained high glass
Pour out the Virgin and Saints, twist and untwist
The mortal youth of Christ astride an ass.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
