starhawke, I really appreciate your pinning down that quotation for me. It has been running through my head for years, but I probably would not ever have got back to that Crane poem. Since I do not own his collected works, I wonder where I came across it in the first place. Never would have guessed that's who invented the phrase!

Honored to hear from such an erudite character!
