    “Where no great fish venture
    nor small fish glitter and dart,
    only the anemones and flower
    of the wild sea-thyme
    cover the silent walls
    of an old sea-city at rest.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    “Raphael paints wisdom; Handel sings it, Phidias carves it, Shakespeare writes it, Wren builds it, Columbus sails it, Luther preaches it, Washington arms it, Watt mechanizes it.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Advertisers are the interpreters of our dreams—Joseph interpreting for Pharaoh. Like the movies, they infect the routine futility of our days with purposeful adventure. Their weapons are our weaknesses: fear, ambition, illness, pride, selfishness, desire, ignorance. And these weapons must be kept as bright as a sword.”
    —E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)
