    “no arranged terror: no forcing of image, plan,
    or thought:
    no propaganda, no humbling of reality to precept:
    terror pervades but is not arranged, all possibilities
    of escape open: no route shut,”
    —Archie Randolph Ammons (b. 1926)

    “As some heads cannot carry much wine, so it would seem that I cannot bear so much society as you can. I have an immense appetite for solitude, like an infant for sleep, and if I don’t get enough of it this year, I shall cry all the next.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Civilization must be destroyed. The hairy saints
    Of the North have earned this crumb by their complaints.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
