“ But let not Europe palpitate
For fear of an Art Syndicate.
There are more Rembrandts, strange to say,
Than ever were in Rembrandt's day;
And statues "planted" in the sand
Will always equal the demand. ”

“ To draw his bank account, than him.

Hiram Maxim
From Hiram Maxim's hair you'd think
His specialty was spilling ink—
You'd never dream he'd spilt more blood
Than any one man since the Flood. ”

“ Others more plausibly maintain

William Howard Taft
I'm sorry William Taft is out
Of Politics; without a doubt
Of all the Presidential crew

G. K. Chesterton
When Plain Folk, such as you or I,
See the Sun sinking in the sky,
We think it is the Setting Sun,
But Mr. Gilbert Chesterton
Is not so easily misled. ”
