   Likewise the gods, who being deathless are also soulless and

When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his
limitations.  When power narrows the areas of man's concern, poetry
reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence.  When power
corrupts, poetry cleanses.

                 -- John F. Kennedy
