“Fold up the banners! Smelt the guns!

A mighty mother turns in tears
The pages of her battle years,
Lamenting all her fallen sons!”

Eugene O’Neill: Don’t give me a lot of parlor socialism that you learned in the village. If you were mine, I wouldn’t share you with anybody or anything. It would be just you and me. You’d be at the center of it all. You know it would feel a lot more like love than being left alone with your work.”
—Warren Beatty (b. 1937)
