    ““what has cast such a shadow upon you” “The negro.””
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    “Like a bad doctor who has fallen down sick you are cast down, and cannot find what sort of drugs would cure your ailment.”
    —Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)

    “indolence read as abnegation,
    slattern thought styled intuition,
    every lapse forgiven, our crime
    only to cast too bold a shadow
    or smash the mold straight off.”
    —Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
