—Clive James (b. 1939)
“America lives in the heart of every man everywhere who wishes to find a region where he will be free to work out his destiny as he chooses.”

“There are two kinds of liberalism. A liberalism which is always, subterraneously authoritative and paternalistic, on the side of one’s good conscience. And then there is a liberalism which is more ethical than political; one would have to find another name for this. Something like a profound suspension of judgment.”
—Roland Barthes (1915–1980)
