A Baptist minister for most of his life and contemporary of Charles Spurgeon and J.C. Ryle, he seceded to the Anglican church in his last decade.

## Quotes

* The everlasting covenant which God has made with Jesus, and through Jesus with all His beloved people, individually, is a strong ground of consolation amidst the tremblings of human hope, the fluctuations of creature things, and the instability of all that earth calls good.
** Midnight Harmonies (New York: Robert Carter & Brothers, 1853), "Songs in the Night", p. 32.
* There is poetry and there is beauty in real sympathy; but there is more—there is action. […] The noblest and most powerful form of sympathy is not merely the responsive tear, the echoed sigh, the answering look—it is the embodiment of the sentiment in actual help.
** The Sympathy of Christ with Man: Its Teaching and Consolation (London: Janes Nisbet, 1862), Preface, pp. iii–iv.

# Octavio Solis

Octavio Solis (born 1958) is an American playwright and director.

## Quotes

* …The principal feature of the retablos I have seen and collected is the picture, the diorama, if you will, of someone’s earthly crisis, at which the divine is also present in the figure of a particular saint or Holy Virgin. This simple crudely drawn and painted image is wrought with drama, depicting a moment of powerful tension, pain, and transcendence. I took my cues from these images, and determined to use them as the motif for the moments in my life that defined me…
** On being influenced by retablos in “An Interview with Octavio Solis” (Welcome to Literary Ashland; 2019 Jun 24)
* For someone born in the US but whose parents hail from Mexico, there is always a disconnect that happens between the present culture and the one before. Sometimes, it is a flimsy synapse, and sometimes the disconnect can be a chasm…
** On having Mexican-born parents in “An Interview with Octavio Solis” (Welcome to Literary Ashland; 2019 Jun 24)
* …I learned to violate the rules of time and space—that they can be protracted, or that an entire war can happen in two or three lines of dialogue. I learned from movie montage, how to use language as montage. And for the scene of the judge’s assassination, I learned a lot from Julius Caesar…
** On learning how language is implemented in different works in “Octavio Solis’s Journey to ‘Mother Road’” (American Theatre; Sept 2019)
* I’m not a poet, but I do like heightened language that can exist in the theatre. Many plays are sounding more naturalistic these days, more like TV. I still take my cues from Shakespeare. I would rather have the story exist more in the audience’s heads than on a screen.
** On avoiding the label of magical realism in “Octavio Solis’s Journey to ‘Mother Road’” (American Theatre; Sept 2019)
# S. S. Misra

S. S. Misra is an Indian linguist and senior professor in the Department of Linguistics in the Banaras Hindu University.

## Quotes

* Classical Sanskrit is often called Paninian Sanskrit. Western scholars are of the opinion that this is a continuation of Old Indo-Aryan in the MIA period. This is only partially true.
** The Old Indo Aryan A Historical And Comparitive Grammar Vol. 1 Satya Swarup Misra

## Quotes about S.S. Misra

* Mallory (1997), for example, who is otherwise noteworthy for his thorough and fair approach to all points of view, characterizes S. S. Misra's entire position by a sole tongue-in-cheek comment that he sees fit to extract from Misra's book: "India has not been rejected as a potential homeland of the Indo-Europeans (pace Misra 1992: 41) only because 'it is a nice place to live and people would not move outside it'!" (104). Misra has dedicated a lifetime to writing dozens of specialized books on Indo-European languages, and, while one may not agree with some of his arguments in his book on the Aryan problem (such as the primacy of Sanskrit), his observations regarding the Finno-Ugric loans, at least, do merit a less flippant characterization and a more solid response.
** J.P. Mallory, quoted in Bryant Edwin, The Quest for the Origins of Vedic Culture, 2001, Oxford University Press
# S. S. Van Dine

## Quotes
### The Benson Murder Case (1926)

* He spent considerable time at his clubs; his favorite was the Stuyvesant, because, as he explained to me, its membership was drawn largely from the political and commercial ranks, and he was never drawn into a discussion which required any mental effort
** Ch. 1
* Anyway, you know full well I never wear boutonnieres. The decoration has fallen into disrepute. The only remaining devotees of the practice are roués and saxophone players.
** Ch. 2
* Circumstantial evidence, Markham, is the utt‘rest tommyrot imag‘nable. Its theory is not unlike that of our present-day democracy. The democratic theory is that if you accumulate enough ignorance at the polls, you produce intelligence; and the theory of circumst‘ntial evidence is that if you accumulate a sufficient number of weak links, you produce a strong chain.
** Ch. 22
* “Good God!” he mummered. “I don‘t know what to believe.” “In that respect,” returned Vance, “you‘re in the same disheartenin‘ predic‘ment as all the philosophers.”
** Ch. 23
* As I understand it, your policemen are chosen by their height and weight; they must meet certain requirements as to heft—as thought the only crimes they had to cope with were riots and gang feuds. Bulk—the great American ideal, whether in art, architecture, table d‘hôte meals, or detectives. An entrancin‘ notion.
** Ch 25

### The Bishop Murder Case (1929)

* A fairy tale in terms of blood—a world in anamorphosis—a perversion of all rationality.… It’s unthinkable, senseless, like black magic and sorcery and thaumaturgy. It’s downright demented.
** Ch 1
* Only, as long as we‘re going insane we may as well go the whole way. A mere shred of sanity is of no value.
** Ch 1
* I trust the clergy are not involved in this problem. They‘re notoriously unscientific. One can‘t attack them with mathematics.
** Ch 5
* “Do you play chess, by the by?” asked Vance. “Used to. But no more. A beautiful game, though—if it wasn't for the players.”
** Ch 11
* “You’re probably right,” sighed Vance. “I haven’t any coruscatin’ arguments to combat you with. Only, I’m disappointed. I don’t like anticlimaxes, especially when they don’t jibe with my idea of the dramatist’s talent. Pardee’s death at this moment is too deuced neat—it clears things up too tidily. There’s too much utility in it, and too little imagination.”
** Ch 22
* “Oh, my dear fellow! I’m not indulgin’ in implications. I’m merely givin’ tongue to my youthful curiosity, don’t y’ know.”
** Ch 22
* Giving full rein to one‘s cynicism as one goes along produces a normal outlet and maintains an emotional equilibrium.
** Ch 26

## Quotes

* BBC Interviewer: Mr. Prime Minister, the introduction as Sinhalese as the official language by your government [Sri Lankan Government], appears to have damaged the good relations, which previously existed between Sinhalese and Tamils, how do you justify this act? S. W. R. D. Bandaranaike: Well, when our country became independent, naturally the question aroused... of national language. superseding English as the official language of the country. Sinhalese, we decided upon, as the official language, because 70% of the people of Ceylon are Sinhalese. At the same time, we naturally realized that the Tamil minority had a language that was also old, very rich language, literature... so on, and therefore we decided, also, to give a reasonable use to the Tamil language, as a language of a national minority. In such matters, and education, examinations, and the public service, and so on: We fear that that is the fairest way, for a problem to be settled.

## Quotes

He admitted having no knowledge of Puranas and said, “We were given only six weeks time for the entire study.

This was the point the bench focussed on to refuse attaching any value to the four historians' report."

* “.. I did not try to know what is written in the Ramayana by Tulsi Das…”...“I did not read what features a mosque may not have. I am not a specialist in epigraphy and numismatics… I am not a geologist… I am not a student of History… I am not a specialist in architecture. My specialty was field archaeology.”

* From the pagans of the pre-Vedic period to the faithfuls of the post-Vedic era, only the Sun God hasn't lost its eminence in the daily lives of the human beings. Both the believers and the atheists hold it in reverence. Heliolatry has persisted from the prehistoric times.
