“Both cultures encourage innovation and experimentation, but are likely to reject the innovator if his innovation is not accepted by audiences.

—Herbert J. Gans (b. 1927)
“The peace conference must not adjourn without the establishment of some ordered system of international government, backed by power enough to give authority to its decrees. ...

—Virginia Crocheron Gildersleeve (1877–1965)
