    “We live under continual threat of two equally fearful, but seemingly opposed, destinies: unremitting banality and inconceivable terror. It is fantasy, served out in large rations by the popular arts, which allows most people to cope with these twin specters.”
    —Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    “With a laugh,
    An oath of towns that set the wild at naught,
    They bring the telephone and telegraph.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “Sisters define their rivalry in terms of competition for the gold cup of parental love. It is never perceived as a cup which runneth over, rather a finite vessel from which the more one sister drinks, the less is left for the others.”
    —Elizabeth Fishel (20th century)

    “To walk through the ruined cities of Germany is to feel an actual doubt about the continuity of civilization.”
    —George Orwell (1903–1950)
