We are born with luck

Which is to say with gold in our mouth.

As new and smooth as a grape,

As pure as a pond in Alaska,

As good as the stem of a green bean

We are born and that ought to be enough.

—Anne Sexton, The Evil Seekers

Treason and murder ever kept together.

—William Shakespeare, Henry V

A Sheldon can do your income taxes. If you need a root canal, Sheldon’s your man. But humpin’ and pumpin’ is not Sheldon’s strong suit. It’s the name. “Do it to me, Sheldon. You’re an animal, Sheldon. Ride me, big…SHELdon.” Doesn’t work.

—Harry, When Harry Met Sally
