    “Though living is a dreadful thing
    And a dreadful thing is it

    Our logic and our wit?”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    No subject for immortal verse—
    That we who lived by honest dreams
    Defend the bad against the worse.”
    —Cecil Day Lewis (1904–1972)

    “... though mathematics may teach a man how to build a bridge, it is what the Scotch Universities call the humanities, that teach him to be civil and sweet-tempered.”
