“The face we see was never young,
Nor could it ever have been old.
For he, to whom we had applied
Our shopmans test of age and worth,
Was elemental when he died,
As he was ancient at his birth:”

“Art is the imposing of a pattern on experience, and our aesthetic enjoyment is recognition of the pattern.”
—Alfred North Whitehead (18611947)
“The grand points in human nature are the same to-day they were a thousand years ago. The only variability in them is in expression, not in feature.”
—Herman Melville (18191891)

—Sethembile N., South African black anti-apartheid activist. As quoted in Lives of Courage, ch. 19, by Diana E. H. Russell (1989)
