“One must apply ones reason to everything here, learning to obey, to shut up, to help, to be good, to give in, and I dont know what else. Im afraid I shall use up all my brains too quickly, and I havent got so very many. Then I shall not have any left for when the war is over.”

“Getting ready: the show girl scratches her breast and shakes out her feathers.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“If one doubts whether Grecian valor and patriotism are not a fiction of the poets, he may go to Athens and see still upon the walls of the temple of Minerva the circular marks made by the shields taken from the enemy in the Persian war, which were suspended there. We have not far to seek for living and unquestionable evidence. The very dust takes shape and confirms some story which we had read.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
