    “The world will never be long without some good reason to hate the unhappy; their real faults are immediately detected, and if those are not sufficient to sink them into infamy, an additional weight of calumny will be superadded.”
    —Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

    “Isn’t life a series of images that change as they repeat themselves?”
    —Andy Warhol (c. 1928–1987)
