—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1845)
“We love to overlook the boundaries which we do not wish to pass.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

In this fresh, breezy atmosphere ... we will be surprised to find that many of our familiar old conventional truths look very queer indeed in some of the sudden side lights thrown upon them.”
