When an individual is taken into custody or otherwise deprived of his freedom by the authorities and is subjected to questioning . . . he must be warned prior to any questioning that he has the right to remain silent, that anything he says can be used against him in a court of law, that he has the right to the presence of an attorney, and that if he cannot afford an attorney one will be appointed for him prior to any questioning if he so desires. Earl Warren
We are in a great school, and we should be diligent to learn, and continue to store up the knowledge of heaven and of earth, and read good books, although I cannot say that I would recommend the reading of all books, for it is not all books which are good.

A lot of people are mad and jealous and bitter and I only hope they also can be heard by an expanding publishing program the size of Russia's. Because it's not a question of the merit of art, but a question of spontaneity and sincerity and joy I say. I would like everybody in the world to tell his full life confession and tell it HIS OWN WAY and then we'd have something... Jack Kerouac
Holbrook Jackson quote: "Book-love, I say again, lasts throughout life, it never flags..."
Book-love, I say again, lasts throughout life, it never flags or fails, but, like Beauty itself, is a joy forever. Holbrook Jackson

Nell's husband has short-man syndrome. Eddie is one of those deadly dull people who is so upbeat that I suspect he would subconsciously like to go through the neighborhood, house by house, with a machine gun.

Emily Dickinson quote: "They say that 'home is where the heart is.' I think it is..."
They say that 'home is where the heart is.' I think it is where the house is, and the adjacent buildings. Emily Dickinson
