    “In my experience, if you have to keep the lavatory door shut by extending your left leg, it’s modern architecture.”
    —Nancy Banks-Smith, British columnist. Guardian (London, February 20, 1979)

    “For generations, a wide range of shooting in Northern Ireland has provided all sections of the population with a pastime which ... has occupied a great deal of leisure time. Unlike many other countries, the outstanding characteristic of the sport has been that it was not confined to any one class.”
    —Northern Irish Tourist Board. quoted in New Statesman (London, Aug. 29, 1969)

    “these heroic happy dead
    who rushed like lions to the roaring slaughter
    they did not stop to think they died instead
    then shall the voice of liberty be mute?

    He spoke. And drank rapidly a glass of water”
    —E.E. (Edward Estlin)
