    “O western orb sailing the heaven,
    Now I know what you must have meant as a month since I walked,

    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    “Deafness produces bizarre effects, reversing the natural order of things; the interchange of letters is the conversation of the deaf, and the only link with society. I would be in despair, for instance, over seeing you speak, but, instead, I am only too happy to hear you write.”
    —Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
