“If only he would not pity us so much,
Weaken our fate, relieve us of woe both great

And uncourageous genesis . . .”

“It is easy and dismally enervating to think of opposition as merely perverse or actually evilfar more invigorating to see it as essential for honing the mind, and as a positive good in itself. For the day that moral issues cease to be fought over is the day the word human disappears from the race.”
—Jill Tweedie (b. 1936)
