“I don’t care very much for literary shrines and haunts ... I knew a woman in London who boasted that she had lodgings from the windows of which she could throw a stone into Carlyle’s yard.

—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“The values to which the conservative appeals are inevitably caricatured by the individuals designated to put them into practice.”
