    “Hast not thy share? On winged feet,
    Lo! it rushes thee to meet;

    And, like thy shadow, follow thee.”

    “When we can drain the Ocean into mill-ponds, and bottle up the Force of Gravity, to be sold by retail, in gas jars; then may we hope to comprehend the infinitudes of man’s soul under formulas of Profit and Loss; and rule over this too, as over a patent engine, by checks, and valves, and balances.”
    —Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)

    “The meteor that thrusts in with needle bill,
    And off a blossom in mid-air stands still.”
