“Oft have I mused, but now at length I find,
Why those that die, men say they do depart.”
—Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)

Hill-scholar, man that never is,
The bad-bespoken lacker,
Ancestor of Narcissus, prince
Of the secondary men. There are no rocks
And stones, only this imager.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“One non-revolutionary weekend is infinitely more bloody than a month of permanent revolution.”
