“Y’see it’s sort of a game with me. Its whole object is to prove that two plus two equals four. That seems to make sense, but you’d be surprised at the number of people who try to stretch it to five.”
—Dalton Trumbo (1905–1976)
“Nothing could his enemies do but it rebounded to his infinite advantage,—that is, to the advantage of his cause....
