“Lora May: How do I look?

“My attitude toward punctuation is that it ought to be as conventional as possible. The game of golf would lose a good deal if croquet mallets and billiard cues were allowed on the putting green. You ought to be able to show that you can do it a good deal better than anyone else with the regular tools before you have a license to bring in your own improvements.”
—Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
“It was the bad ax-helve someone had sold me
“Made on machine,” he said, plowing the grain
With thick thumbnail to show how it ran
Across the handle’s long-drawn serpentine,
Like the two strokes across a dollar sign.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
