“In such a night, when passing clouds give place,
Or thinly veil the heavens mysterious face;

“Social and scientific progress are assured, sir, once our great system of postpossession payments is in operation, not the installment plan, no sir, but a system of small postpossession payments that clinch the investment.

—John Dos Passos (18961970)
