    When time is old and hath forgot itself,
    When waterdrops have worn the stones of Troy,
    And blind oblivion swallowed cities up,
    And mighty states characterless are grated
    To dusty nothing, yet let memory
    From false to false among false maids in love
    Upbraid my falsehood.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    —James P. Comer (20th century)

    “One may as well preach a respectable mythology as anything else.”
