Jan Struther Quotes
The Fact That We Are Now Crusaders Needn't Blind Us To The Fact That For A Very Long Time We Have Been, As Badger Would Say, Echidnas. I Can Think Of A Hundred Ways Already In Which The War Has "brought Us To Our Senses." But It Oughtn't To Need A War To Make A Nation Paint Its Kerbstones White, Carry Rear-lamps On Its Bicycles, And Give All Its Slum Children A Holiday In The Country. And It Oughtn't To Need A War To Make Us Talk To Each Other In Buses, And Invent Our Own Amusements In The Evenings, And Live Simply, And Eat Sparingly, And Recover The Use Of Our Legs, And Get Up Early Enough To See The Sun Rise. However, It Has Needed One: Which Is About The Severest Criticism Our Civilization Could Have.
