    “Self-love is the love of a man’s own self, and of everything else for his own sake. It makes people idolaters to themselves, and tyrants to all the world besides.”

    “In poorer lands
    No one touches the water of life.
    It has no taste
    And though it refreshes absolutely
    It is a cup that must also pass
    Until everybody
    Gets some advantage....”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “However others calculate the cost,
    To us the final aggregate is one,
    One with a name, one transferred to the blest;
    And though another stoops and takes the gun,
    We cannot add the second to the first.”
    —Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)
