“He could jazz up the map-reading class by having a full-size color photograph of Betty Grable in a bathing suit, with a co- ordinate grid system laid over it. The instructor could point to different parts of her and say, “Give me the co-ordinates.”... The Major could see every unit in the Army using his idea.... Hot dog!”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

“When the plowman fled,
having left a highborn woman
in the throes of ecstasy,
thinking her dead,
the cotton plant
bobbed with the weight
of new bloom on its stalk
as if laughing.”
—Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
