"If once a man indulges himself in murder, very soon he comes to think little of robbing; and from robbing he comes next to drinking and Sabbath-breaking, and from that to incivility and procrastination. Once begun upon this downward path, you never know where you are to stop."
Thomas DeQuincey,
Murder Considered as One of the Fine Arts (1827).

"With a haunting and contemplative voice, ... Loselle employs rhythm, word-play, and richness of language, line after line. Through rhyme, narrative constructs, and repetition, he crafts poems that are admirably controlled and precise.... Loselle’s beautifully spun poems continue to reverberate long after
the last light’s been switched off."

"What he taught was much more than just
how to properly dissect literature, he taught perseverance, leadership and communication skills. It's through Mr. Loselle's intense love
of education and the fine arts that he is
able to leave such a lasting impression
on so many students."
