    For it’s home, dearie, home—it’s home I want to be.
    Our topsails are hoisted, and we’ll away to sea.
    O, the oak and the ash and the bonnie birken tree
    They’re all growing green in the old countrie.
    —William Ernest Henley (1849–1903)

    Prose is architecture, not interior decoration, and the Baroque is over.
    —Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)

    The poorest man may in his cottage bid defiance to all the forces of the Crown. It may be frail—its roof may shake—the wind may blow through it—the storm may enter—the rain may enter—but the King of England cannot enter!—all his forces dare not cross the threshold of the ruined tenement!
    William Pitt, The Elder, Lord Chatham (1708–1778)
