    Literature, the most seductive, the most deceiving, the most dangerous of professions.

    Mortality, behold, and fear,
    What a change of flesh is here!
    Think how many royal bones
    Sleep within this heap of stones,
    Hence removed from beds of ease,
    Dainty fare, and what might please,
    —Francis Beaumont (1584-1616)
