words in our pockets, we wonder
how it will be without them, we dont
stop walking, we know

—Pat Fielder, and Paul Landres. Dracula (Francis Lederer)
“At no time in history ... have the people who are not fit for society had such a glorious opportunity to pretend that society is not fit for them. Knowledge of the slums is at present a passport to societyso much the parlor philanthropists have achievedand all they have to do is to prove that they know their subject. It is an odd qualification to have pitched on; but gentlemen and ladies are always credulous, especially if you tell them that they are not doing their duty.”
—Katharine Fullerton Gerould (18791944)
