    Fear has nothing to do with cowardice. A fellow is only yellow when he lets his fear make him quit.

    —William James (1842–1910)

    It began with begging.
    In the beginning it was all God’s icebox
    and everyone ate raw fish or animals
    and there was no fire at night to dance to,
    no fire at day to cook by.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
