    —Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    “Consider his life which was valueless
    In terms of employment, hotel ledgers, news files.

    Ask. Was so much expenditure justified
    On the death of one so young and so silly
    Lying under the olive tree, O world, O death?”
    —Stephen Spender (1909–1995)
