    “The trouble began with Forster. After him it was considered ungentlemanly to write more than five or six novels.”
    —Anthony Burgess (b. 1917)

    “It was a time of madness, the sort of mad-hysteria that always presages war. There seems to be nothing left but war—when any population in any sort of a nation gets violently angry, civilization falls down and religion forsakes its hold on the consciences of human kind in such times of public madness.”
    —Rebecca Latimer Felton (1835–1930)
