The white youth of today have begun to react to the fact that the American Way of Life is a fossil of history. What do they care if their old baldheaded and crew-cut elders don't dig their caveman mops?

Yet Byron never made tea as you do, who fill the pot so that when you put the lid on the tea spills over. There is a brown pool on the table--it is running among your books and papers. Now you mop it up, clumsily, with your pocket-hankerchief. You then stuff your hankerchief back into your pocket--that is not Byron; that is so essentially you that if I think of you in twenty years' time, when we are both famous, gouty and intolerable, it will be by that scene: and if you are dead, I shall weep. — Virginia Woolf
I think that the revolution in music is over, and what's left is a mop-up action. It's a matter of the news getting out to everybody else.

Determined secularists view these as residual inconsistencies that they have not yet go around to extirpating and that may not be worth bothering about...

That is just about all it amounts to. Let's stop playing church today and start loving Christ and living for Him! — J. Vernon McGee
