    [James G. Blaine’s] devotion to the public interests, his marked ability, and his exalted patriotism have won for him the gratitude and affection of his countrymen and the admiration of the world. In the varied pursuits of legislation, diplomacy, and literature his genius has added new luster to American citizenship.
    —Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)

    There is something else which has the power to awaken us to the truth. It is the works of writers of genius....

    Simone Weil (1909–1943)
