T.S. Eliot, The Waste Land and Other Poems

William Blake
“The lamb misused breeds public strife

William Blake

“Everything takes time. Bees have to move very fast to stay still.”
David Foster Wallace, Brief Interviews with Hideous Men

If bees are few.”
Emily Dickinson, The Complete Poems of Emily Dickinson

David Foster Wallace
“Insects all business all the time.”
David Foster Wallace, The Pale King
