    —J.M. (John Millington)

    America is the only nation in history which miraculously has gone directly from barbarism to degeneration without the usual interval of civilization.
    Georges Clemenceau (1841–1929)

    Readers transform a library from a mausoleum into many theaters.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
