    “All deep, earnest thinking is but the intrepid effort of the soul to keep the open independence of her sea; while the wildest winds of heaven and earth conspire to cast her on the treacherous, slavish shore.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    “Hell, covering all with its gloomy vapors, has cast shadows on even the holiest eyes.”

    “Who first seduc’d them to that fowl revolt?
    Th’ infernal Serpent; he it was, whose guile
    Stird up with Envy and Revenge, deceiv’d
    The Mother of Mankinde, what time his Pride
    Had cast him out from Heav’n, with all his Host
    Of Rebel Angels,”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)
