    “In a large university, there are as many deans and executive heads as there are schools and departments. Their relations to one another are intricate and periodic; in fact, “galaxy” is too loose a term: it is a planetarium of deans with the President of the University as a central sun. One can see eclipses, inner systems, and oppositions.”
    —Jacques Barzun (b. 1907)

    “This is D.J., Disc Jockey to American turning off. Vietnam, hot dam.”
    —Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

    “He bore her away in his arms,
    The handsomest young man there,
    And his neck and his breast and his arms
    Were drowned in her long dim hair.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
