“Bastidides, on the contrary, who both talks and writes of nothing
save copulation,
Has become the father of twins,
But he accomplished this feat at some cost;
He had to be four times cuckold.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

“I am not an accomplished lawyer.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

“Erasmus was the light of his century; others were its strength: he lighted the way; others knew how to walk on it while he himself remained in the shadow as the source of light always does. But he who points the way into a new era is no less worthy of veneration than he who is the first to enter it; those who work invisibly have also accomplished a feat.”
—Stefan Zweig (18811942)
