    Down the blue night the unending columns press
    In noiseless tumult, break and wave and flow,
    Rupert Brooke (1887–1915)

    He may be a very nice man. But I haven’t got the time to figure that out. All I know is, he’s got a uniform and a gun and I have to relate to him that way. That’s the only way to relate to him because one of us may have to die.
    James Baldwin (1924–1987)
