“You’re gonna take the rap and play along. You’re gonna make every exact move I tell you. If you don’t, I’ll kill you. And I’ll promise you one thing, it won’t be quick. I’ll break you first.

—Geoffrey Homes (1902–1977)
“Your organization is not a praying institution. It’s a fighting institution. It’s an educational institution right along industrial lines. Pray for the dead and fight like hell for the living!”

“The future author is one who discovers that language, the exploration and manipulation of the resources of language, will serve him in winning through to his way.”
