Of thy chaste breast and quiet mind
To war and arms I fly.”

“Even in harmonious families there is this double life: the group life, which is the one we can observe in our neighbour’s household, and, underneath, another—secret and passionate and intense—which is the real life that stamps the faces and gives character to the voices of our friends.

—Willa Cather (1873–1947)
