    Turn up the lights; I don’t want to go home in the dark.
    O. Henry [William Sydney Porter] (1862–1910)

    Flushed with new life, the crowd flows back again:
    And all is tangled talk and mazy motion—
    Much like a waving field of golden grain,
    Or a tempestuous ocean.
    And thus they give the time, that Nature meant
    For peaceful sleep and meditative snores,
    To ceaseless din and mindless merriment
    And waste of shoes and floors.
    —Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
