    Poor old Jonathan Bing

    If you please will excuse me
    I won’t come to tea;
    For home’s the best place for
    All people like me!
    Beatrice Curtis Brown (1901–1974)

    Ideas about life organize perception; names of emotions organize sensations; rules of syntax organize thought. But pain comes on its own.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
