    The child that is not clean and neat,
    With lots of toys and things to eat,
    He is a naughty child, I’m sure—
    Or else his dear Papa is poor.

    Trusty, dusky, vivid, true,
    With eyes of gold and bramble-dew,
    Steel-true and blade-straight
    The great artificer
    Made my mate.
    —Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)

    Freedom is not an ideal, it is not even a protection, if it means nothing more than freedom to stagnate, to live without dreams, to have no greater aim than a second car and another television set.
    —Adlai Stevenson (1900–1965)

    Loosed betwixt eye and lid, the swimming beams
    Of memory, blind school of cuttlefish,
    Rise to the air, plunge to the cold streams....
