    He could jazz up the map-reading class by having a full-size color photograph of Betty Grable in a bathing suit, with a co- ordinate grid system laid over it. The instructor could point to different parts of her and say, “Give me the co-ordinates.”... The Major could see every unit in the Army using his idea.... Hot dog!
    Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

    The hat I was married in,
    will it do?
    White, broad, fake flowers in a tiny array.
    It’s old-fashioned, as stylish as a bedbug,
    but it suits to die in something nostalgic.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    A book should long for pen, ink, and writing-table: but usually it is pen, ink, and writing-table that long for a book. That is why books are so negligible nowadays.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
