“ Our sole concern with the long dead is aesthetic ”
No person of quality ever remembers social restrictions save when considering how most piquantly to break them.
~ James Branch Cabell
I ask of literature precisely those things of which I feel the lack in my own life.
Every notion that any man, dead, living, or unborn, might form as to the universe will necessarily prove wrong
The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds, and the pessimist fears this is true.
