Classical and romantic: private language of a family quarrel, a dead dispute over the distribution of emphasis between man and nature. – Cyril Connolly
All of us grow up in particular realities – a home, family, a clan, a small town, a neighborhood. Depending upon how were brought up, we are either deeply aware of the particular reading of reality into which we are born, or we are peripherally aware of it. – Chaim Potok
Doorman – a genius who can open the door of your car with one hand, help you in with the other, and still have one left for the tip. – Dorothy Kilgallen
