    A cricket like a dwindled hearse
    Crawls from the dry grass.”

    “I like Australia less and less. The hateful newness, the democratic conceit, every man a little pope of perfection.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    “If love closes, the self contracts and hardens: the mind having nothing else to occupy its attention and give it that change and renewal it requires, busies itself more and more with self-feeling, which takes on narrow and disgusting forms, like avarice, arrogance and fatuity.”
    —Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)
