I play witch.”

“They are the lovers of law and order who observe the law when the government breaks it.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“The easiest period in a crisis situation is actually the battle itself. The most difficult is the period of indecisionwhether to fight or run away. And the most dangerous period is the aftermath. It is then, with all his resources spent and his guard down, that an individual must watch out for dulled reactions and faulty judgment.”
—Richard M. Nixon (19131995)
“An army is maintained for a thousand days all to be used on one morning.”
—Chinese proverb.
“The poet who speaks out of the deepest instincts of man will be heard. The poet who creates a myth beyond the power of man to realize is gagged at the peril of the group that binds him. He is the true revolutionary: he builds a new world.”
—Babette Deutsch (18951982)
“Especially when the October wind
With frosty fingers punishes my hair,”
