Holly: Pheww ... you’ve got a terrific line.”

“Young people do not perceive at once that the giver of wounds is the enemy and the quoted tattle merely the arrow.”
—F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
“Justice in the hands of the powerful is merely a governing system like any other. Why call it justice? Let us rather call it injustice, but of a sly effective order, based entirely on cruel knowledge of the resistance of the weak, their capacity for pain, humiliation and misery. Injustice sustained at the exact degree of necessary tension to turn the cogs of the huge machine-for- the-making-of-rich-men, without bursting the boiler.”
—Georges Bernanos (1888–1948)
