    “All in the golden afternoon
    Full leisurely we glide;
    For both our oars, with little skill,
    By little arms are plied,
    While little hands make vain pretense
    Our wanderings to guide.”
    —Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    “Yet resurrection is a sense of direction,
    resurrection is a bee-line,
    straight to the horde and plunder,
    the treasure, the store-room,
    the honeycomb....”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    “Grown onto every inch of plate, except
    Where the hinges let it move, were living things,
    Barnacles, mussels, water weeds—and one
    Blue bit of polished glass, glued there by time:
    The origins of art.”
    —Howard Moss (b. 1922)
