    It is a rare life that remains well-ordered even in private.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    Now is the time for drinking [nunc est bibendum], now is the time to make the earth shake with dancing.
    Horace [Quintus Horatius Flaccus] (65–8 B.C.)

    When human beings have been fascinated by the contemplation of their own hearts, the more intricate biological pattern of the female has become a model for the artist, the mystic, and the saint. When mankind turns instead to what can be done, altered, built, invented, in the outer world, all natural properties of men, animals, or metals become handicaps to be altered rather than clues to be followed.
    Margaret Mead (1901–1978)
