—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“Men have sometimes exchanged names with their friends, as if they would signify that in their friend each loved his own soul.”

“A knowledge that people live close by is,
I think, enough. And even if only first names are ever exchanged
The people who own them seem rock-true and marvelously self-sufficient.”
