"I am not one who was born in the custody of wisdom. I am one who is fond of olden times and intense in quest of the sacred knowing of the ancients." Gustave Courbet

Happy Birthday, Nash


Free from flashiness, free from trashiness
Is the essence of Ogdenashiness.
Rich, original, rash and rational,
Stands the monument Ogdenational.

Ogden Nash, born on this day in 1902
