    —Los Angeles Sportscaster. quoted in Independent Magazine (London, Sept. 28, 1991)

    There used to be a thing or a commodity we put great store by. It was called the People. Find out where the People have gone. I don’t mean the square-eyed toothpaste-and-hair-dye people or the new-car-or-bust people, or the success-and-coronary people. Maybe they never existed, but if there ever were the People, that’s the commodity the Declaration was talking about, and Mr. Lincoln.
    John Steinbeck (1902–1968)

    It is the future that creates his present.
    All is an interminable chain of longing.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
