—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

“For a tired man who just found a gorilla in his bed, I think I’m behaving very well.”
—Ruth Rose. Ernest B. Schoedsack. Mr. Young (Regis Toomey)

“Linda, you are leaving
your old body now.
It lies flat, an old butterfly,
all arm, all leg, all wing,
loose as an old dress.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
