    “Artists, whatever their medium, make selections from the abounding materials of life, and organize these selections into works that are under the control of the artist....

    —Jane Jacobs (b. 1916)

    “When you gonna get married, Marty? You should be ashamed of yourself. All your brothers and sisters, younger than you, they get married and got the children.
