Famous quotes by edith wharton:

    There is too much sour grapes for my taste in the present American attitude. The time to denounce the bankers was when we were all feeding off their gold plate; not now! At present they have not only my sympathy but my preference. They are the last representatives of our native industries.
    Edith Wharton (1862–1937)

    I have never known a novel that was good enough to be good in spite of its being adapted to the author’s political views.
    Edith Wharton (1862–1937)
