—Willa Cather (1873–1947)
“Friendship is one of the most tangible things in a world which offers fewer and fewer supports.”
—Kenneth Branagh (b. 1960)
“The poetry of heroism appeals irresistibly to those who don’t go to a war, and even more to those whom the war is making enormously wealthy. It’s always so.”
—Louis-Ferdinand Céline (1894–1961)
