    For some people, their idea of getting tough is longer suspended sentences.
    Jeremy Larner, U.S. screenwriter. Senator Crocker Jarman (Don Porter)

    The path was a vague parting in the grass
    That led us to a weathered windowsill.
    We pressed our faces to the pane. “You see,” he said,
    “Everything’s as she left it when she died....”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Britannia needs no bulwarks,
    No towers along the steep;
    Her march is o’er the mountain-waves,
    Her home is on the deep.
    —Thomas Campbell (1774–1844)
