“José’s my first non-rat romance. Not that he’s my idea of the absolute finito. He’s too prim and cautious to be my absolute ideal, Now, if I could choose from anybody alive, I wouldn’t pick José. Nehru, maybe, or Albert Schweitzer. Or Leonard Bernstein.”
—George Axelrod (b. 1922)

“[John] Brough’s majority is “glorious to behold.” It is worth a big victory in the field. It is decisive as to the disposition of the people to prosecute the war to the end. My regiment and brigade were both unanimous for Brough [the Union party candidate for governor of Ohio].”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
