“You raise them half-decent, and they grow up and leave. They move to Miami or California-- someplace with gourmet groceries and nude beaches because you've reared them to cook good and be liberal minded. It's just the opposite with your failures-- them kids stick to your tail like a cocklebur. You'd think it would be the other way around, but it's not. No matter how old I get, this will always amaze me.”

“And so it was with the Broad Street well that the decision to remove the pump handle turned out to be more significant than the short-term effects of that decision [Cholera outbreak abated.] . . . .But the pump handle stands for more than that local redemption. It marks a turning point in the battle between urban man and V. cholerae, because for the first time a public institution had made an informed intervention into a cholera outbreak based on a scientifically sound theory of the disease. . . . For the first time, the V. cholerae's growing dominion over the city would be challenged by reason, not superstition.”

“Selam-e-Sapiens (Shattered Seer Sonnet) Sometimes I'm battered vagabond, Sometimes I'm shattered seer. No claim to name, fame or reign, Lovedrunk I write borracha poesía. Sometimes I'm mest-i-mevlana, Sometimes I'm my own Shams. Sometimes I'm dastan-e-dervish, Sometimes I'm selam-e-sapiens. I am no brahmin, I am the Godfather of brahmins; I am Parabrahma, the Brahmins worship. I am Adi, I am Anth, I am Ananth Adishakti. Leave your creed, crown and constitution, when you enter my door. I am but a human if you are human, if you're sectarian, I'm messiah galore.”
