Absolute and eternal beauty does not exist, or rather it is only an abstraction creamed from the general surface of different beauties. The particular element in each manifestation comes from the emotions: and just as we have our own particular emotions, so we have our own beauty.”
—Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)

“Thee for my recitative,
Thee in the driving storm even as now, the snow, the winter-day

convulsive,
Thy black cylindric body, golden brass and silvery steel,”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

“Those who have been once intoxicated with power, and have derived any kind of emolument from it, even though but for one year, never can willingly abandon it. They may be distressed in the midst of all their power; but they will never look to anything but power for their relief.”

—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
