“Back now to autumn, leaving the ended husk
Of summer that brought them here for Show Saturday
The men with hunters, dog-breeding wool-defined women,
Children all saddle-swank, mugfaced middleaged wives
Glaring at jellies, husbands on leave from the garden
Watchful as weasels, car-tuning curt-haired sons
Back now, all of them, to their local lives....”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“If Rosa Parks had taken a poll before she sat down in that bus in Montgomery, she’d still be standing.”

“Television could perform a great service in mass education, but there’s no indication its sponsors have anything like this on their minds.”
