“We are close to dead. There are faces and bodies like gorged maggots on the dance floor, on the highway, in the city, in the stadium; they are a host of chemical machines who swallow the product of chemical factories, aspirin, preservatives, stimulant, relaxant, and breathe out their chemical wastes into a polluted air. The sense of a long last night over civilization is back again.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
“The applause we give those who are new to society often proceeds from a secret envying of those already established.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
“The skilful Nymph reviews her force with care:
Let Spades be trumps! she said, and trumps they were.”
