“I do not believe in erecting statues to those who still live in our hearts, whose bones have not yet crumbled in the earth around us, but I would rather see the statue of Captain Brown in the Massachusetts State-House yard than that of any other man whom I know.

—Graham Swift (b. 1949)
“The road became a channel running flocks
Of glossy birds like ripples over rocks.”
