“The task of an American writer is not to describe the misgivings of a woman taken in adultery as she looks out of a window at the rain but to describe four hundred people under the lights reaching for a foul ball. This is ceremony.”
—John Cheever (1912–1982)
“Some people are so extremely whiffling and inconsiderable that they are as far from any real faults as from substantial virtues.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
