    swirling crustacean-
    tailed equine amphibious creatures
    that garnish the axle-tree! What
    a fine thing! What unannoying
    romance!
    Marianne Moore (1887–1972)

    One may disavow and disclaim vices that surprise us, and whereto our passions transport us; but those which by long habits are rooted in a strong and ... powerful will are not subject to contradiction. Repentance is but a denying of our will, and an opposition of our fantasies.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
