    The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds; and the pessimist fears this is true.

    I counted two and seventy stenches,
    All well defined and several stinks!
    Ye Nymphs that reign o’er sewers and sinks,
    The river Rhine, it is well known,
    Doth wash your city of Cologne;
    But tell me, Nymphs! what power divine
    Shall henceforth wash the river Rhine?
    Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

    By the road to the contagious hospital
    under the surge of the blue
    mottled clouds driven from the
    northwest—a cold wind.
    William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
