“Water. Its sunny track in the plain; its splashing in the garden canal, the sound it makes when in its course it meets the mane of the grass; the diluted reflection of the sky together with the fleeting sight of the reeds; the Negresses fill their dripping gourds and their red clay containers; the song of the washerwomen; the gorged fields the tall crops ripening.”
—Jacques Roumain (1907–1945)

“To take revenge halfheartedly is to court disaster: Either condemn or crown your hatred.”

“The art of medicine in the season lies:
Wine given in season oft will benefit,
Which out of season injures.”
