    That made the magnitude and glory there
    Stood in the circuit of a needle’s eye.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Follow a shaddow, it still flies you;
    Seeme to flye it, it will pursue:
    So court a mistris, shee denyes you;
    Let her alone, shee will court you.
    Say, are not women truely, then,
    Stil’d but the shaddowes of us men?
    At morne, and even, shades are longest;
    At noone, they are or short, or none:
    So men at weakest, they are strongest,
    But grant us perfect, they’re not knowne.
    Say, are not women truely, then,
    Stil’d but the shaddowes of us men?”
    —Ben Jonson (1572–1637)

    “The values to which the conservative appeals are inevitably caricatured by the individuals designated to put them into practice.”
