    Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)

    In the United States there’s a Puritan ethic and a mythology of success. He who is successful is good. In Latin countries, in Catholic countries, a successful person is a sinner.
    Umberto Eco (b. 1932)

    Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)

    J. August Strindberg (1849–1912)
