“I make it a kind of pious rule to go to every funeral to which I am invited, both as I wish to pay a proper respect to the dead, unless their characters have been bad, and as I would wish to have the funeral of my own near relations or of myself well attended.”
—James Boswell (17401795)
“Animals are stylized characters in a kind of old sagastylized because even the most acute of them have little leeway as they play out their parts.”
—Edward Hoagland (b. 1932)
