“I met a little Elf-man, once,
Down where the lilies blow.
I asked him why he was so small
And why he didn’t grow.”

“... there is something quixotic in me about money, something meek and guilty. I want it and like it. But I cannot imagine insisting on it, pressing it out of people. I always vaguely feel: why should I have money when other people have it not? It is like taking the biggest piece of cake. And I can never feel that I have earned it.”
—Brenda Ueland (1891–1985)
