I well recall the time when prime hard crabs of the channel species, blue in color, at least eight inches in length along the shell, and with snow-white meat almost as firm as soap, were hawked in Hollins Street of Summer mornings at ten cents a dozen.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    There’s only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that’s your own self.
    Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
