“This world has many rings, like Saturn, and we live now on the outmost of them all.

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Their very imagination was dead. When you can say that of a man, he has struck bottom, I reckon; there is no lower deep for him.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
