    With beauty, which is varying every hour;
    But, in chaste hearts uninfluenced by the power
    Of outward change, there blooms a deathless flower,
    That breathes on earth the air of paradise.”
    —Michelangelo Buonarroti (1474–1564)

    “Do you know I believe that [William Jennings] Bryan will force his nomination on the Democrats again.

But you will see that the year before the election he will organize a mammoth lecture tour and will make Prohibition the leading note of every address.”
