National Final

Famous quotes containing the words national and/or final:

    “Five o’clock tea” is a phrase our “rude forefathers,” even of the last generation, would scarcely have understood, so completely is it a thing of to-day; and yet, so rapid is the March of the Mind, it has already risen into a national institution, and rivals, in its universal application to all ranks and ages, and as a specific for “all the ills that flesh is heir to,” the glorious Magna Charta.
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    The final test of a novel will be our affection for it, as it is the test of our friends, and of anything else which we cannot define.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)
