A quote from Wallace Steven's "Six Significant Landscapes":
Rationalists, wearing square hats,
Think, in square rooms,
Looking at the floor,
Looking at the ceiling.
They confine themselves
to right-angled triangles.
If they tried rhomboids,
Cones, waving lines, ellipses-
As, for example, the ellipse of the half-moon,
Rationalists would wear sombreros.

Isn't whimsy wonderful?
