    As stiff twin compasses are two;
    Thy soul, the fixed foot, makes no show
    To move, but doth if th’ other do.
    John Donne (1572–1631)

    We swim, day by day, on a river of delusions, and are effectually amused with houses and towns in the air, of which the men about us are dupes. But life is a sincerity.

    J.J. Gittes: I said I want the truth!
    Evelyn Mulwray: She’s my sister. She’s my daughter. My sister, my daughter.
    J.J. Gittes: I said I want the truth!
