Caroline   Miller
“...she came as near as ever she came to kneeling and thanking God for all good and all ill that He had ever sent upon her. She thought: next time I will wait and learn His purpose before I rail against His harshness. God was teacing her a mighty means of battle, she thought - a force stronger than force; He had whispered a secret in her ear - patience.”
Caroline Miller

Upton Sinclair
“Hitler was calling upon Almighty God to give him courage and strength to save the German people and right the wrongs of Versailles...and then to settle down and govern the county in the interest of those millions of oppressed "little people" for whom he spoke so eloquently.”
Upton Sinclair, Dragon's Teeth I

H.L. Davis

H.L. Davis, Honey in the Horn

“Thinking it was easy to take a chance on things if you had nothing to lose -- politics, ideas, almost anything in fact; from the bottom of the ladder you could safely risk a fall, but the higher that you climbed the more cautious you must be.”
Flavin, Martin

Josephine Winslow Johnson
“But only in mad people fear goes on constant night and day, wearing one ditch in the mind that all thoughts must travel in.”
Josephine Winslow Johnson, Now in November
