From the Quotation of the day mailing list, 2005-11-20:
"I have a gloomy premonition... that we will soon look back on this troubled moment as a golden time of freedom and license to act and speculate. One feels the sinews of the tiger, an ascetic, 'moral' and authoritarian reign of piety and iron." -- Robert Lowell, in 1966, as part of an answer to a questionnaire sent to him by the editors of Partisan Review.(submitted to the mailing list by Terry Labach)
