“the function of the imagination for Chesterton is not to make the notional and theoretical concrete and real as for Newman, but to make settled things strange;”

“exactly like the Imperialist idea of war’, as both Socialists and Imperialists ‘always assumed that they would win the war’. But then Belloc wrote his poem ‘The Rebel’, ‘a very violent and bitter poem’ and ‘the only revolutionary poem I ever read, that suggested that there was any plan for making an attack’.”
― Ian Ker, G. K. Chesterton: A Biography
