"I’m not a naturally wrathful person. I don’t like to (and usually don’t) lose my temper. The
exception is when drivers ignore pedestrian right of way. I will, whether I’m a few steps or a few miles
into my walk, admonish them — loudly and none too gently. (They, of course, cannot hear me inside
their cars.)
It’s hard to shake the impression that New York City’s drivers have become more aggressive.
They run reds, viciously honk and yell at pedestrians who clearly have the right of way and generally
endanger the lives of those on foot.
From 2009 to 2022, an average of 136 pedestrians were killed each year by traffic in the city.
The numbers have gone down slightly — to 99 in 2023 — but cyclist deaths have climbed, though they
remain a small fraction of pedestrian deaths. (The city’s decision to give pedestrians a head start at
many intersections, where walk signals turn white before streetlights go green, may be helping.)
In the United States generally, walking has become far more dangerous. The number of
pedestrian fatalities nationally has climbed more than 80 percent in the past 15 years, largely because
of increasingly hazardous automotive design. Some police departments effectively no longer punish
drivers for any traffic infractions. San Francisco’s police officers “have almost entirely abandoned
enforcement of traffic laws,” The Times’s Heather Knight reported.
All of this calls not just for policy changes such as automobile regulation, improved policing
and better urban planning but also for a more assertive pedestrian culture. Aggressive drivers have
exacerbated this problem; aggressive pedestrians can help solve it."

"This American-born poet, playwright, and literary critic, born at the end of the 19th century, is
considered one of the most significant figures in 20th-century modernist literature. After moving to
England early in his adult life, he became a British citizen in 1927, deeply embedding himself in the
literary scene there. His work is known for its complex symbolism, deep exploration of human despair,
and innovative use of language and form. Perhaps his most famous work is a long poem that presents
a haunting vision of post-World War I society. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1948
for his outstanding, pioneer contribution to present-day poetry. This writer is best known for being a
leader of the Modernist movement in poetry and as the author of such works as The Waste Land (1922)
and Four Quartets (1943)."

“The only artists I have ever known who are personally delightful are bad artists. Good artists exist
simply in what they make, and consequently are perfectly uninteresting in what they are. A great poet,
a really great poet, is the most unpoetical of all creatures. But inferior poets are absolutely fascinating.
The worse their rhymes are, the more picturesque they look. The mere fact of having published a book
of second-rate sonnets makes a man quite irresistible. He lives the poetry that he cannot write. The
others write the poetry that they dare not realize.”
