I have never used, or even thought to use, an epigraph before. Reading these lines in Melville's Billy Budd changed my mind, though. They each fit what could end up being an interesting story quite well:
"Down among the groundlings, among the beggars and rakers of the garbage, profound passion is enacted."
"Who in the rainbow can draw the line where the violet tint ends and the orange tint begins? Distinctly we see the difference of the colors, but where exactly does the one first blendingly enter into the other? So with sanity and insanity."
-Herman Melville, Billy Budd, Sailor
