    The inspired scribbler always has the gift for gossip in our common usage ... he or she can always inspire the commonplace with an uncommon flavor, and transform trivialities by some original grace or sympathy or humor or affection.
    —Elizabeth Drew (1887–1965)

    Of the wheel as it rolls unrelentingly over
    A cow plodding through car-traffic on a street in Iasi,
    And over the haunts of Robert Pinsky’s mother and father
    And wife and children and his sweet self
    —Robert Pinsky (b. 1940)
