“One is not idle because one is absorbed. There is both visible and invisible labor. To contemplate is to toil, to think is to do. The crossed arms work, the clasped hands act. The eyes upturned to Heaven are an act of creation.”
—Victor Hugo (1802–1885)

“The award of a pure gold medal for poetry would flatter the recipient unduly: no poem ever attains such carat purity.”
