    “It might become a wheel spoked red and white
    In alternate stripes converging at a point
    Of flame on the line, with a second wheel below,
    Just rising, accompanying, arranged to cross,
    Through weltering illuminations, humps
    Of billows, downward, toward the drift-fire shore.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “The sea is very old.
    The sea is the face of Mary,
    without miracles or rage
    or unusual hope,
    grown rough and wrinkled
    with incurable age.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “Biography is a very definite region bounded on the north by history, on the south by fiction, on the east by obituary, and on the west by tedium.”
