    a poem of remembrance, a gift, a souvenir for you.
    —Robert Earl Hayden (1913–1980)

    By all those, who are not much acquainted with him, he was considered infinitely below his level; he put no price upon himself, and consequently went at an undervalue; for the world is complaisant or dupe enough, to give every man the price he sets upon himself, provided it be not insolently and overbearingly demanded. It turns upon the manner of asking.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    You can’t talk about a kind of democracy unless those who are affected by decisions make those decisions whether the institutions in question be the welfare department, the university, the factory, the farm, the neighborhood, the country.
    —Casey Hayden (b. c. 1940)
