    “You have a lifetime to work, but children are only young once.”
    —Polish Proverb. New York Times Magazine (February 20, 1994)

    “A decent chap, a real good sort,
    Straight as a die, one of the best,
    A brick, a trump, a proper sport,
    Head and shoulders above the rest;
    How many lives would have been duller
    Had he not been here below?
    Here’s to the whitest man I know
    Though white is not my favourite colour.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    you heap roses above a grave;
    a woman under the earth
    is safe,
    a woman dead
    is beloved.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
