“Much of what Mr. Wallace calls his global thinking is, no matter how you slice it, still “globaloney.” Mr. Wallace’s warp of sense and his woof of nonsense is very tricky cloth out of which to cut the pattern of a post-war world.”

“O good old man, how well in thee appears
The constant service of the antique world,
When service sweat for duty, not for meed!”
