| Quote of the moment |
| Hermit hoar, in solemn cell, Wearing out life's evening gray; Strike thy bosom, Sage! and tell What is bliss, and which the way? Thus I spoke, and speaking sigh'd Scarce repress'd the starting tear, When the hoary Sage reply'd, "Come, my lad, and drink some beer." |

| ~ Herman Melville (1819–1891), U.S. author. Pierre bk. XXI (1852), The Writings of Herman Melville, vol. 7, eds. Harrison Hayford, Hershel Parker, and G. Thomas Tanselle (1971). ~ |
