“He smiled understandingly-much more than understandingly. It was one of those rare smiles with a quality of eternal reassurance in it, that you may come across four or five times in life. It faced--or seemed to face--the whole eternal world for an instant, and then concentrated on you with an irresistible prejudice in your favor.

― F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby

“Human nature is like water. It takes the shape of its container.”
― Wallace Stevens

― Harper Sloan, Axel
