Shedding white rings of tumult, building high
Over the chained bay waters Liberty—
Then, with inviolate curve, forsake our eyes”

Keeps Parnell in his mind
For Parnell was a proud man,
No prouder trod the ground,
And a proud man’s a lovely man
So pass the bottle round.”

“Los Angeles is a Yukon for crime-story writers.”

“By a route obscure and lonely,
Haunted by ill angels only,
Where an eidolon, named Night,
On a black throne reigns upright,
I have reached these lands but newly
From an ultimate dim Thule—
From a wild weird clime that lieth, sublime,
Out of space—out of time.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
