  6. Bear in There
    - by Shel Silverstein

    There's a polar bear
    In our Frigidaire—
    He likes it 'cause it's cold in there.
    With his seat in the meat
    And his face in the fish
    And his big hairy paws
    In the buttery dish,
    He's nibbling the noodles,
    He's munching the rice,
    He's slurping the soda,
    He's licking the ice.
    And he lets out a roar
    If you open the door.
    And it gives me a scare
    To know he's in there—
    That polary bear
    In our Fridgitydaire.

  7. A quotation from Montaigne

    Men have seemed miraculous to the world, in whom their wives and valets have never seen anything even worth noticing. Few men have been admired by their own households.
     
    [Tel a esté miraculeux au monde, auquel sa femme & son valet n’ont rien veu seulement de remerquable. Peu d’hommes ont esté admirez par leurs domestiques.]

    Michel de Montaigne (1533-1592) French essayist
    Essays, Book 3, ch. 2 “Of Repentance [Du repentir]” (1586) (3.2) (1595) [tr. Frame (1943)]
