    “Such epithets, like pepper,
    Give zest to what you write;
    And, if you strew them sparely,
    They whet the appetite:
    But if you lay them on too thick,
    You spoil the matter quite!”
    —Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    “It looked extremely rocky for the Mudville nine that day;
    The score stood two to four, with but one inning left to play.”
    —Ernest Lawrence Thayer (1863–1940)

    “When the water of a place is bad it is safest to drink none that has not been filtered through either the berry of a grape, or else a tub of malt. These are the most reliable filters yet invented.”
    —Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
