“I realized how for all of us who came of age in the late sixties and early seventies the war was a defining experience. You went or you didn’t, but the fact of it and the decisions it forced us to make marked us for the rest of our lives, just as the depression and World War II had marked my parents.”
—Linda Grant (b. 1949)
“We have seen her
the world over,
Our Lady of the Goldfinch,
Our Lady of the Candelabra,
Our Lady of the Pomegranate,
Our Lady of the Chair.”

“The inconveniences and horrors of the pox are perfectly well known to every one; but still the disease flourishes and spreads.

Experientia doesn’t.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
