Perhaps you laugh at me! Perhaps the whole United States are laughing at me too! I can’t stop for that! My business is to love.
—Emily Dickinson
Can’t weight it on a scale
Can’t plot it on a graph
The tremors won’t be measured
On a seismograph
You can do a million surveys
You can fill in all the bubbles
But you’ll never find a theory
To eliminate your troubles
Sooner if not later
Every statistician found
You can process all the data
But the variables confound
It can’t be quantified
It won’t fit on your chart
Your methods cannot measure
The circumference of the heart
by Richard W. Bray
