You have the sheet of blank paper, the pencil, and the obligation to invent truer than things can be true.

—Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
“My center is giving way, my right is in retreat; situation excellent. I shall attack.”

“Beneath the azure current floweth;
Above, the golden sunlight glows.
Rebellious, the storm it wooeth,
As if the storms could give repose.”
—Mikhail Lermontov (1814–1841)
