“Patriotism. Combustible rubbish ready to the torch of any one ambitious to illuminate his name.”
—Ambrose Bierce (1842–1914)
“I got a little secretarial job after college, but I thought of it as a prelude. Education, work, whatever you did before marriage, was only a prelude to your real life, which was marriage.”
—Bonnie Carr (c. early 1930s)
“There’s something like a line of gold thread running through a man’s words when he talks to his daughter, and gradually over the years it gets to be long enough for you pick up in your hands and weave into a cloth that feels like love itself.

—John Gregory Brown (20th century)
