“A solitary traveler whom we saw perambulating in the distance loomed like a giant. He appeared to walk slouchingly, as if held up from above by straps under his shoulders, as much as supported by the plain below.

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“No rules exist, and examples are simply life-savers answering the appeals of rules making vain attempts to exist.”
—André Breton (1896–1966)

“If the Soviet Union let another political party come into existence, they would still be a one-party state, because everybody would join the other party.”
