    “At twenty-two, he’d been a cowboy, a rustler, one of the best in the Sprawl.... He’d operated on an almost permanent adrenaline high, a byproduct of youth and proficiency, jacked into a custom cyberspace deck that projected his disembodied consciousness into the consensual hallucination that was the Matrix.”
    —William Gibson b. (1948)

    “Shaw’s plays are the price we pay for Shaw’s prefaces.”
    —James Agate (1877–1947)

    “Morning smack of the spade that wakes up sleep,
    Shakes a desolate boy who slits his throat
    In the dark of the coffin and sheds dry leaves,”
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    “Golden slumbers kiss your eyes,
    Smiles awake you when you rise.
    Sleep, pretty wantons, do not cry,
    And I will sing a lullaby:
    Rock them, rock them, lullaby.”
    —Thomas Dekker (1572?–1632?)
