    “As for butterflies, I can hardly conceive
    of one’s attending upon you; but to question
    the congruence of the complement is vain, if it exists.”
    —Marianne Moore (1887–1972)

    “The trouble with tea is that originally it was quite a good drink. So a group of the most eminent British scientists put their heads together, and made complicated biological experiments to find a way of spoiling it. To the eternal glory of British science their labour bore fruit.”
    —George Mikes (b. 1912)
