    Stephen Crane
    “LXV [Once, I knew a fine song]

    Once, I knew a fine song,
    —It is true, believe me,—
    It was all of birds,
    And I held them in a basket;
    When I opened the wicket,
    Heavens! They all flew away.
    I cried, “Come back, little thoughts!”
    But they only laughed.
    They flew on
    Until they were as sand
    Thrown between me and the sky.”
    ― Stephen Crane

    Caleb Carr
    “– Нам сообщили, что это дело невозможно раскрыть, – ответил Морган.
    – Но зачем мешать попытке его раскрыть? – настойчиво спросил Крайцлер.
    – Потому, джентльмены, – раздался тихий голос у нас за спиной, – что пока дело считается нераскрываемым, никого нельзя обвинить в том, что его не раскрывают.”
    ― Caleb Carr, The Alienist
