“Dark Angel, with thine aching lust
To rid the world of penitence:
Malicious Angel, who still dost
My soul such subtile violence!

Because of thee, no thought, no thing,
Abides for me undesecrate:
Dark Angel, ever on the wing,
Who never reachest me too late!”
—Lionel Pigot Johnson (1867–1902)

Sir Charles: You’re either married to a boy scout or a dachshund.”
—Blake Edwards (b. 1922)
