       Dedication

      To Irene Bernardicou Pettit, Ph.D.

      – being both poet and peasant,

      she knew how to plant this seed

      and tend it until it blossomed.

      To Art, who especially loves the

      flowers – one more love we

      share.

       I believe in aristocracy, though—if that is the right word, and if a democrat may use it. Not an aristocracy of power … but … of the sensitive, the considerate.… Its members are to be found in all nations and classes, and all through the ages, and there is a secret understanding between them when they meet. They represent the true human tradition, the one permanent victory of our queer race over cruelty and chaos. Thousands of them perish in obscurity, a few are great names. They are sensitive for others as well as themselves, they are considerate without being fussy, their pluck is not swankiness but the power to endure …

      E. M. Forster, “What I Believe,”

      in Two Cheers for Democracy
