    Chanuka and St. Nicholas Day came almost together this year—just one day’s difference.

Because of the shortage of candles we only had them alight for ten minutes, but it is all right as long as you have the song.
    Anne Frank (1929–1945)

    Now boys, remember you are the Twenty-third, and give them hell. In these woods the Rebels don’t know but we are ten thousand; and if we fight, and when we charge yell, we are as good as ten thousand, by God.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    Artists the minute they set up as artists,
    Before, that is, they are themselves accepted,
    And boys the minute they get out of college.
    I can’t help thinking those are tests to go by.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Castaway, your time is a flat sea that doesn’t stop,
    with no new land to make for and no new stories to swap.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
