    “People nowadays like to be together not in the old-fashioned way of, say, mingling on the piazza of an Italian Renaissance city, but, instead, huddled together in traffic jams, bus queues, on escalators and so on. It’s a new kind of togetherness which may seem totally alien, but it’s the togetherness of modern technology.”
    —J.G. (James Graham)

    “It is hard to describe the thrill of creative joy which the artist feels when the conviction seizes her that at last she has caught the very soul of the character she wishes to portray, in the music and action which reveal it.”
    —Maria Jeritza (1887–1982)

    ““Men there were and men there be
    But never men so many
    Chief enough to marry me,”
    Thought the proud late Annie.”
