    “The one-eyed man will be King in the country of the blind only if he arrives there in full possession of his partial faculties—that is, providing he is perfectly aware of the precise nature of sight and does not confuse it with second sight ... nor with madness.”
    —Angela Carter (1940–1992)

    “Shea—they call him Scholar Jack—
    Went down the list of the dead.
    Officers, seamen, gunners, marines,
    The crews of the gig and yawl,
    The bearded man and the lad in his teens,
    Carpenters, coal-passers—all.”
    —Joseph I. C. Clarke (1846–1925)

    “Many things complicated by nature are restored by reason.”
    —Titus Livius (Livy)

    “Does art reflect life? In movies, yes. Because more than any other art form, films have been a mirror held up to society’s porous face.”
    —Marjorie Rosen (b. 1942)
