“See where she comes, apparelled like the spring.
Graces her subjects, and her thoughts the king
Of every virtue gives renown to men.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“We’re talking scum here. Air should be illegal if they breathe it.”

“There is the grand truth about Nathaniel Hawthorne. He says NO! in thunder; but the Devil himself cannot make him say yes. For all men who say yes, lie; and all men who say no,—why, they are in the happy condition of judicious, unincumbered travellers in Europe; they cross the frontiers into Eternity with nothing but a carpet-bag,—that is to say, the Ego. Whereas those yes-gentry, they travel with heaps of baggage, and, damn them! they will never get through the Custom House.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
