“European society has always been divided into classes in a way that American society never has been. A European writer considers himself to be part of an old and honorable tradition—of intellectual activity, of letters—and his choice of a vocation does not cause him any uneasy wonder as to whether or not it will cost him all his friends.

Fishes in the flood,
And I must wax wod:
Much sorrow I walk with
For best of bone and blood.”
