    “We do not prove the existence of the poem.
    It is something seen and known in lesser poems.
    It is the huge, high harmony that sounds
    A little and a little, suddenly,
    By means of a separate sense. It is and it
    Is not and, therefore, is.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “We disparage reason.
    But all the time it’s what we’re most concerned with.
    There’s will as motor and there’s will as brakes.
    Reason is, I suppose, the steering gear.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “At Hayes’ General Store, west of the cemetery, hangs an old army rifle, used by a discouraged Civil War veteran to end his earthly troubles. The grocer took the rifle as payment ‘on account.’”
