    “Then the bowsprit got mixed with the rudder sometimes:
    A thing, as the Bellman remarked,
    That frequently happens in tropical climes
    When a vessel is, so to speak, “snarked.””
    —Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    “Thee for my recitative,
    Thee in the driving storm even as now, the snow, the winter-day
    declining,
    Thee in thy panoply, thy measur’d dual throbbing and thy beat
    convulsive,
    Thy black cylindric body, golden brass and silvery steel,”
    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    “... religion can only change when the emotions which fill it are changed; and the religion of personal fear remains nearly at the level of the savage.”
    —George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
