—Gore Vidal (b. 1925)
“Strange how such innocence gets its own way.
I shouldn’t be surprised if in this world

“Things base and vile, holding no quantity,
Love can transpose to form and dignity.
Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
