“Until that time comes I’ll live a thousand hopes, die a thousand times.”
—Edward T. Lowe. Erle C. Kenton. Lawrence Talbot (Lon Chaney)
“John Brown and Giuseppe Garibaldi were contemporaries not solely in the matter of time; their endeavors as liberators link their names where other likeness is absent; and the peaks of their careers were reached almost simultaneously: the Harper’s Ferry Raid occurred in 1859, the raid on Sicily in the following year. Both events, however differing in character, were equally quixotic.”
—John Cournos (1881–1956)
