• There was once a great actor named George C. Scott. He was on stage in the Delacourt Theater in Central Park, where they do Shakespeare every summer, and he was playing Shylock in The Merchant of Venice. At one point he took the robes he was wearing and just started flipping them up in the air, out of nowhere. And later, an actor said to him, "What was that, George, what were you doing?"

But that Rapture stuff--well, if you could see them all in Heaven--serried ranks of them as far as the mind can follow and beyond, league after league of us, flaming swords, all that, well, what I'm trying to say is who has time to go round picking people out and popping them up in the air to sneer at the people dying of radiation sickness on the parched and burning earth below them?

• How do you like to go up in a swing,
  Up in the air so blue?
  Oh, I do think it the pleasantest thing
  Ever a child can do!
  Up in the air and over the wall,
  Till I can see so wide,
  River and trees and cattle and all
  Over the countryside.
  Till I look down on the garden green,
  Down on the roof so brown-
  Up in the air I go flying again,
  Up in the air and down!
