Fay Weldon Quotes
The Language Of Distinction Ceases To Be Available; Is No Longer Available. We Must Search CD Rom For Meanings Which Once Were Clear, But Now Are Obscure. The Words Are Too Big For The Narrow Column Of The Contemporary Newspaper. We Are All One-syllable People Now, Two At Most. So We Mumble And Stumble Into Our Futures. But It Is Still Our Task And Our Reward To Scavenge Through The Universe , Picking Up The Detritus Of Lost Concepts, Dusting Them Down, Making Them Shine. Latin Was The Best Polishing Cloth Of All, But We Threw It Away.
