    “The Cossack eats Poland,
    Like stolen fruit;
    Her last noble is ruined,
    Her last poet mute:
    Straight, into double band
    The victors divide;
    Half for freedom strike and stand;—
    The astonished Muse finds thousands at her side.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “To fight aloud is very brave,
    But gallanter I know,
    Who charge within the bosom
    The Cavalry of Woe.”
    —Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    “There was nothing to equal it in the whole history of the Corps Diplomatique.”
    —James Boswell (1740–1795)
