    “Just think of all the spare time that has flown
    Straight into nothingness by being filled
    With forks and faces....”

    “Whether, if you yield not to your father’s choice,
    You can endure the livery of a nun,
    For aye to be in shady cloister mewed,
    To live a barren sister all your life,
    Chanting faint hymns to the cold fruitless moon.
    Thrice blessed they that master so their blood
    To undergo such maiden pilgrimage.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
