God has put us on earth to love our neighbors and to show it, and He is omnipresent, even in India, to see how we are succeeding. E. M. Forster
There is no harm in deceiving society as long as she does not find you out, because it is only when she finds you out that you have harmed her; she is not like a friend or God, who are injured by the mere existence of unfaithfulness. E. M. Forster
It was English, and the wych-elm that she saw from the window was an English tree. No report had prepared her for its peculiar glory. It was neither warrior, nor lover, nor god; in none of these roles do the English excel. It was a comrade, bending over the house, strength and adventure in its roots, but in its utmost fingers tenderness, and the girth, that a dozen men could not have spanned, became in the end evanescent, till pale bud clusters seemed to float in the air. E. M. Forster

Forster

E. M. Forster quote: "If God could tell the story of the Universe, the Universe..."
If God could tell the story of the Universe, the Universe would become fictitious. E. M. Forster
