    —Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    “Glamour cannot exist without personal social envy being a common and widespread emotion.”
    —John Berger (b. 1926)

    “Now, my co-mates and brothers in exile,
    Hath not old custom made this life more sweet
    Than that of painted pomp?”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
