    “Now that the steam engine rules the world, a title is an absurdity, still I am all dressed up in this title. It will crush me if I do not support it. The title attracts attention to myself.”
    —Stendhal [Marie Henri Beyle] (1783–1842)

    “Ideas about life organize perception; names of emotions organize sensations; rules of syntax organize thought. But pain comes on its own.”
