“The [Loyal] legion has taken the place of the clubthe famous Cincinnati Literary Clubin my affections.... The military circles are interested in the same things with myself, and so we endure, if not enjoy, each other.”

“As deaths have accumulated I have begun to think of life and death as a set of balance scales. When one is young, the scale is heavily tipped toward the living. With the first death, the first consciousness of death, the counter scale begins to fall. Death by death, the scales shift weight until what was unthinkable becomes merely a matter of gravity and the fall into death becomes an easy step.”
—Alison Hawthorne Deming (b. 1946)
