    “The gold-digger in the ravines of the mountains is as much a gambler as his fellow in the saloons of San Francisco. What difference does it make whether you shake dirt or shake dice? If you win, society is the loser.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Is that the Craig Jurgesen that Teddy Roosevelt gave you?... And you used it at San Juan Hill defending liberty. Now you want to destroy it.”
    —Laurence Stallings (1894–1968)

    “There are knives that glitter like altars
    In a dark church
    Where they bring the cripple and the imbecile
    To be healed.

    There’s a woden block where bones are broken,
    Scraped clean—a river dried to its bed”
    —Charles Simic (b. 1938)
