    You can’t stand up against me. You haven’t got the strength. You’ll do as I say. I demand that you give up this man. I demand that you send him away.
    —Muriel Box (b. 1905)

    She was so overcome by the splendor of his achievement that she took him into the closet and selected a choice apple and delivered it to him, along with an improving lecture upon the added value and flavor a treat took to itself when it came without sin through virtuous effort. And while she closed with a Scriptural flourish, he “hooked” a doughnut.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
