“There was ... a large, shaggy dog, whose nose, report said, was full of porcupine quills. I can testify that he looked very sober.

—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“Oh my God! Theres a fortune teller in Malibu.”
—Blake Edwards (b. 1922)
“You that choose not by the view,
Chance as fair, and choose as true:
Since this fortune falls to you,
Be content, and seek no new.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
