    “How happy is the sailor’s life,

    “Let us guard against saying that death is opposed to life. The living is merely a species of the dead, and a very rare species.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “It so happened that, a few weeks later, “Old Ernie” [Ernest Hemingway] himself was using my room in New York as a hide-out from literary columnists and reporters during one of his rare stopover visits between Africa and Key West. On such all-too-rare occasions he lends an air of virility to my dainty apartment which I miss sorely after he has gone and all the furniture has been repaired.”
    —Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
