Peace is threatened by those who seek selfish power.”
—Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
“In other countries, art and literature are left to a lot of shabby bums living in attics and feeding on booze and spaghetti, but in America the successful writer or picture-painter is indistinguishable from any other decent businessman.”
—Sinclair Lewis (1885–1951)
“When you have broken the reality into concepts you never can reconstruct it in its wholeness.”
