Charming

    Mildred Pierce: And just what do you do, Mr. Beragon?

    Ranald MacDougall (1915–1973)

    How charming is divine philosophy!
    Not harsh and crabbèd, as dull fools suppose,
    But musical as is Apollo’s lute,
    And a perpetual feast of nectared sweets,
    Where no crude surfeit reigns.
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    General jackdaw culture, very little more than a collection of charming miscomprehensions, untargeted enthusiasms, and a general habit of skimming.
    William Bolitho (1890–1930)
