“All you can be sure about in a political-minded writer is that if his work should last you will have to skip the politics when you read it. Many of the so-called politically enlisted writers change their politics frequently.... Perhaps it can be respected as a form of the pursuit of happiness.”
—Ernest Hemingway (18991961)
“Sabbath. A weekly festival having its origin in the fact that God made the world in six days and was arrested on the seventh.”
