    Sir Toby Belch. Dost thou think because thou art virtuous there shall be no more cakes and ale?
    Feste. Yes, by Saint Anne, and ginger shall be hot i’the mouth, too.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    DEAR FRIEND: ——
    If I was sure of thee, sure of thy capacity, sure to match my mood with thine, I should never think again of trifles in relation to thy comings and goings. I am not very wise; my moods are quite attainable; and I respect thy genius; it is to me unfathomed; yet dare I not presume in thee a perfect intelligence of me, and so thou art to me a delicious torment. Thine ever, or never.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Thou madest loose grace unkind;
    Gavest bridle to their words, art to their pace.
    O Honour, it is thou
    That makest that stealth, which Love doth free allow.
    Torquato Tasso (1544–1595)

    There are obvious places in which government can narrow the chasm between haves and have-nots. One is the public schools, which have been seen as the great leveler, the authentic melting pot. That, today, is nonsense. In his scathing study of the nation’s public school system entitled “Savage Inequalities,” Jonathan Kozol made manifest the truth: that we have a system that discriminates against the poor in everything from class size to curriculum.
    Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
