    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “I once heard of a murderer who propped his two victims up against a chess board in sporting attitudes and was able to get as far as Seattle before his crime was discovered.”
    —Robert Benchley (1889–1945)

    “All strange and terrible events are welcome,
    But comforts we despise.”
