“In time of war you know much more what children feel than in time of peace, not that children feel more but you have to know more about what they feel. In time of peace what children feel concerns the lives of children as children but in time of war there is a mingling there is not childrens lives and grown up lives there is just lives and so quite naturally you have to know what children feel.”
—Gertrude Stein (18741946)
“Trial. A formal inquiry designed to prove and put upon record the blameless characters of judges, advocates and jurors.”
