“We are well advised to keep on nodding terms with the people we used to be, whether we find them attractive company or not.

We forget all too soon the things we thought we could never forget.”
—Joan Didion (b. 1934)
“There is no such thing as “the Queen’s English.” The property has gone into the hands of a joint stock company and we own the bulk of the shares!”
