    Oh Sleep! it is a gentle thing,
    Beloved from pole to pole!

    She sent the gentle sleep from Heaven,
    That slid into my soul.
    —Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

    Well, on the official record you’re my son. But on this post you’re just another trooper. You heard me tell the recruits what I need from them. Twice that I will expect from you.... You’ve chosen my way of life. I hope you have the guts enough to endure it. But put outa your mind any romantic ideas that it’s a way to glory. It’s a life of suffering and of hardship and uncompromising devotion to your oath and your duty.
    James Kevin McGuinness, and John Ford. Lt. Col. Kirby Yorke (John Wayne)

    No man was ever yet a great poet, without being at the same time a profound philosopher.
    —Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

    Her skin was white as leprosy,
    The nightmare Life-in-Death was she,
    Who thicks man’s blood with cold.
    —Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
