    Both classically- and romantically-minded spirits—inasmuch as these two species always exist—occupy themselves with a vision of the future: but the former do so out of a strength of their age, the latter out of its weakness.

    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    slops into the empty space....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
