“I do not object to Gladstone’s always having the ace of trumps up his sleeve, but only to his pretence that God had put it there.”

“...what a thing it is to lie there all day in the fine breeze, with the pine needles dropping on one, only to return to the hotel at night so hungry that the dinner, however homely, is a fete, and the menu finer reading than the best poetry in the world! Yet we are to leave all this for the glare and blaze of Nice and Monte Carlo; which is proof enough that one cannot become really acclimated to happiness.”
—Willa Cather (1876–1947)
“The conversion of a savage to Christianity is the conversion of Christianity to savagery.”
