    “Over the tree-tops I float thee a song,
    Over the rising and sinking waves, over the myriad fields and the

    Over the dense-packed cities all and the teeming wharves and ways,
    I float this carol with joy, with joy to thee, O death,”
    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    “... in no part of the world is genteel visiting founded on esteem, in the absence of suitable furniture and complete dinner-service.”
    —George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
