    “At certain times, men regard poetry merely as a bright flame, but to women it was, and always will be, a warm fire.”
    —Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

    “One of the things that is most striking about the young generation is that they never talk about their own futures, there are no futures for this generation, not any of them and so naturally they never think of them. It is very striking, they do not live in the present they just live, as well as they can, and they do not plan. It is extraordinary that whole populations have no projects for a future, none at all.”
    —Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

    “The ceaseless, senseless demand for original scholarship in a number of fields, where only erudition is now possible, has led either to sheer irrelevancy, the famous knowing of more and more about less and less, or to the development of a pseudo- scholarship which actually destroys its object.”
    —Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)

    “First in booze, first in shoes, and last in the American League.”
    —Administration in the State of Miss, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
