„То, что разбито, уже никогда не будет прежним, и лучше вспоминать о том, как это выглядело, когда было целым, чем склеить, а потом до конца жизни лицезреть трещины.“

Предоставьте это старым и усталым… Меня изумляет в некоторых юных, как это они, насколько я могу понять, не просто тоскуют по обеспеченности, но уверенно требуют ее, как свое законное право, и становятся горько раздраженными, если его не преподносят им на серебряном блюде. Есть что-то тревожное для нации, если ее молодые люди взывают к обеспеченности. Юность в прошлом была напористой, желающей и умеющей испробовать свои возможности.“

Маргарет Митчелл
