what brought you smoothing into this dead harbor?
If you’d stayed inside you could have grown
as big as the Empire State.”

“To say a man is fallen in love,—or that he is deeply in love,—or up to the ears in love ... carries an idiomatical kind of implication, that love is a thing below a man:Mthis is ... Plato’s opinion, which ... I hold to be damnable and heretical.”
—Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
