    “There now are no Squire Westerns as of old;
    And our Sophias are not so emphatic,
    But fair as then, or fairer to behold.
    We have no accomplish’d blackguards, like Tom Jones,
    But gentlemen in stays, as stiff as stones.”
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    “If anything characterizes the cultural life of the seventies in America, it is an insistence on preventing failures of communication.”
    —Richard Dean Rosen (b. 1949)
