    “To most men, experience is like the stern lights of a ship, which illumine only the track it has passed.”
    —Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

    “The more elevated a culture, the richer its language. The number of words and their combinations depends directly on a sum of conceptions and ideas; without the latter there can be no understandings, no definitions, and, as a result, no reason to enrich a language.”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    “Who says that fictions only and false hair
    Become a verse? Is there in truth no beauty?
    Is all good structure in a winding stair?
    May no lines pass, except they do their duty
    Not to a true, but painted chair?”
    —George Herbert (1593–1633)
