    “Are sailors, frequenters of fiddlers’ greens, without vices? No; but less often than with landsmen do their vices, so called, partake of crookedness of heart, seeming less to proceed from viciousness than exuberance of vitality after long constraint: frank manifestations in accordance with natural law.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    “this ant-and stone-swallowing uninjurable
    artichoke which simpletons thought a living fable
    whom the stones had nourished, whereas ants had done
    so.”
    —Marianne Moore (1887–1972)
