    A serious writer is not to be confounded with a solemn writer. A serious writer may be a hawk or a buzzard or even a popinjay, but a solemn writer is always a bloody owl.
    Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)

    What have I done for you,
    England, my England?
    What is there I would not do,
    England, my own?
    —William Ernest Henley (1849–1903)

    To be a successful father ... there’s one absolute rule: when you have a kid, don’t look at it for the first two years.
    —Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)

    The poorest man may in his cottage bid defiance to all the forces of the Crown. It may be frail—its roof may shake—the wind may blow through it—the storm may enter—the rain may enter—but the King of England cannot enter!—all his forces dare not cross the threshold of the ruined tenement!
    William Pitt, The Elder, Lord Chatham (1708–1778)
