E. B. White (1899 - 1985)

  • Everything in life is somewhere else, and you get there in a car.
  • Genius is more often found in a cracked pot than in a whole one. 
  • The world organization debates disarmament in one room and, in the next room, moves the knights and pawns that make national arms imperative. 
  • There is nothing more likely to start disagreement among people or countries than an agreement. 
  • One of the most time-consuming things is to have an enemy.
