    I have always fought for ideas—until I learned that it isn’t ideas but grief, struggle, and flashes of vision which enlighten.

    There’s Margaret and Marjorie and Dorothy and Nan,
    A Daphne and a Mary who live in privacy;
    One’s had her fill of lovers, another’s had but one,
    Another boasts, “I pick and choose and have but two or three.”
    If head and limb have beauty and the instep’s high and light
    They can spread out what sail they please for all I have to say....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    INTELLECTUALS DO NOT HAVE AESTHETIC EXPERIENCES.
    —Margaret Anderson (1886–1973)
