Mark Forsyth Quotes

Gone Are Those Heady And Incomprehensible Sentences Of Johnson, Dickens, And Austen, Replaced With The Cruel, Brutalist Parataxes Of Writers Whose Aim Is To Agitate And Distress. The Long Sentence Is Now A Ridiculed Rarity, Usually Hidden Away In The Terms And Conditions, Its Commas And Colons, Clauses And Caveats Languishing Unread And Unloved.
