    “It were sad to gaze on the blessèd and no man I loved of old there;

    And dwell in the house of the Fenians, be they in flames or at feast.”

    “Shall the Spring dawn, and she still clad in smiles,
    And with an unscathed brow,
    Rest in the strong arms of her palm-crowned isles,
    As fair and free as now?

    We know not; in the temple of the Fates
    God has inscribed her doom;
    And, all untroubled in her faith, she waits
    The triumph or the tomb.”
    —Henry Timrod (1828–1867)

    “The car has become the carapace, the protective and aggressive shell, of urban and suburban man.”
    —Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)
