Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
“Some alien substance more and more is cleaving
To all the mind conceives of grand and fair;
When this world's Good is won by our achieving,
The Better, then, is named a cheat and snare”
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
“Unharmed with naked feet she trod
Upon the hot and burning stars”
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Longfellow's Complete Poems: Illustrated

W.B. Yeats
“And like a sunset were her lips,
A stormy sunset on doomed ships”
William Butler Yeats

Samuel Butler
“There is no useful virtue which has not some alloy of vice, and hardly any vice, if any, which carries not with it a little dash of virtue; virtue and vice are like life and death, or mind and matter--things which cannot exist without being qualified by their opposite.”
Samuel Butler

Christopher Ruocchio
“That is the danger of having principles. In politics, principle is like a sword aimed at the heart. Far better, one might be forgiven for thinking, for a lord to have no principles than to risk that he might fall on that sword. The principled man simply has more to lose. It is what makes them such fabulous villains.”
Christopher Ruocchio
