    Nothing can be done about it: every master has but a single pupil—and he will not stay loyal to him—for he is also destined to become a master.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    American thinking, when it concerns itself with beautiful letters as when it concerns itself with religious dogma or political theory, is extraordinarily timid and superficial ... [I]t evades the genuinely serious problems of art and life as if they were stringently taboo ...

    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
