—Richard Louv (20th century)
“As long as lightly all their livelong sessions,
Like a yardful of schoolboys out at recess
Before their plays and games were organized,
They yelling mix tag, hide-and-seek, hopscotch,
And leapfrog in each other’s way all’s well.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“It isn’t true that convicts live like animals: animals have more room to move around.”
—Mario Vargas Llosa (b. 1936)
