also, a poem by dorothy parker:

bohemia
authors and artists and actors and such
never know nothing, and never know much
sculptors and singers and those of their kidney
tell their affairs from seattle to sydney
playwrights and poets and such horse's necks
start off from anywhere, end up at sex
diarists, critics, and similar roe
never say nothing and never say no
People Who Do Things exceed my endurance
God, for a man that solicits insurance
