    “Man is eminently a storyteller. His search for a purpose, a cause, an ideal, a mission and the like is largely a search for a plot and a pattern in the development of his life story—a story that is basically without meaning or pattern.”
    —Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)

    “the San Marco Library,
    Whence turbulent Italy should draw
    Delight in Art whose end is peace,
    In logic and in natural law
    By sucking at the dugs of Greece.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “we, in
    that instant, lost,

    breathless to be witnesses,
    as if we stood
    ourselves refreshed among
    the shining fauna of that fire.”
    —William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
