    Trying to avoid
    Ideas, as in this poem? But we
    Go back to them as to a wife, leaving
    The mistress we desire?
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
    —Bible: New Testament St. John the Divine, in Revelation, 21:4.

    I am afraid if there is anything to be afraid of. A precipice cannot hurt you. Lions and tigers can. The streets of New York I consider more dangerous than the Matterhorn to a thoroughly competent and careful climber.
    —Annie Smith Peck (1850–1935)
