    “There aren’t any good, brave causes left. If the big bang does come, and we all get killed off, it won’t be in aid of the old-fashioned grand design. It’ll just be for the Brave New-nothing-very-much-thank-you. About as pointless and inglorious as stepping in front of a bus. No, there’s nothing left for it, me boy, but to let yourself be butchered by the women.”
    —John Osborne (1929–1994)

    “a fat Reichian wife screeching over potatoes Get a job!
    And five nose running brats in love with Batman”
