    “Through this broad street, restless ever,
    Ebbs and flows a human tide,
    Wave on wave a living river;

    Toiler, idler, slave and master, in the same quick current glide.”
    —John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)

    “When a subject is highly controversial ... one cannot hope to tell the truth. One can only show how one came to hold whatever opinion one does hold. One can only give one’s audience the chance of drawing their own conclusions as they observe the limitations, the prejudices, the idiosyncrasies of the speaker.”
    —Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)

    “I thought it would last my time
    The sense that, beyond the town,
    There would always be fields and farms....”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
