MY FAVE DOUBLE-ISM FROM *LONDON FIELDS*: "And meanwhile time goes about its immemorial work of making everyone look and feel like shit. You got that? And meanwhile time goes about its immemorial work of making everyone look, and feel, like shit."

MY FAVE TRIPLE-ISM FROM *MONEY*: "New York is a jungle, they tell you. You could go further, and say that New York is a jungle. New York *is a jungle*."

MY FAVE DOUBLE-ISM FROM ROBERT FROST: "The woods are lovely, dark, and deep. But I have promises to keep. And miles to go before I sleep. And miles to go before I sleep."

FROM *PALE FIRE* BY VLADIMIR NABOKOV: "Frost is the author of one of the greatest poems in the English language, a poem that every American boy knows by heart, about the wintry woods, and the dreary dusk, and the little horsebells of gentle remonstration in the dull darkening air, and that prodigious and poignant end---two closing lines identical in every syllable, but one personal and physical, and the other metaphysical and universal."
