    “New York loves itself in an unkind and fanatical way.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “Society is all but rude,
    To this delicious solitude.

    No white nor red was ever seen
    So amorous as this lovely green.
    Fond lovers, cruel as their flame,
    Cut in these trees their mistress’ name:
    Little, alas, they know or heed
    How far these beauties hers exceed!
    Fair trees, wheresoe’er your barks I wound,
    No name shall but your own be found.”
    —Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)

    “Making it, making it,
    in their chosen field
    the roses fall
    victim to a weakness of the heart.”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
