“When he bit
that bud of her lower lip,
she started,
shook a finger,
arched her brow,
and hissed,
Leave me alone, you fool,
her eyes narrowing into slits.
Whoever kisses
such a haughty woman
wins the drink of immortality.
Those idiot gods
churned the ocean
for nothing.”
—Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)
“Thus we steadily worship Mammon, both school and state and church, and on the seventh day curse God with a tintamar from one end of the Union to the other.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
