    Points, cypress and conifers,
    All that through the winter bears
    Coarsened fertility against the frost.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “Our chief want in life, is, someone who shall make us do what we can. This is the service of a friend. With him we are easily great.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “An accent mark, perhaps, instead of a whole western accent—a point of punctuation rather than a uniform twang. That is how it should be worn: as a quiet point of character reference, an apt phrase of sartorial allusion—macho, sotto voce.”
    —Phil Patton (b. 1953)
