    “In New York—whose subway trains in particular have been “tattooed” with a brio and an energy to put our own rude practitioners to shame—not an inch of free space is spared except that of advertisements.... Even the most chronically dispossessed appear prepared to endorse the legitimacy of the “haves.””
    —Gilbert Adair, British author, critic. “Cleaning and Cleansing,” Myths and Memories (1986)

    “Did the kiss of Mother Mary
    Put that music in her face?
    Yet she goes with footstep wary,
    Full of earth’s old timid grace.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
