## Quotes
### The Australian Victories in France in 1918

    London: Hutchinson & Co., 1920
* I had formed the theory that the true rôle of the Infantry was not to expend itself upon heroic physical effort, nor to wither away under merciless machine-gun fire, nor to impale itself on hostile bayonets, nor to tear itself to pieces in hostile entanglements — (I am thinking of Pozières and Stormy Trench and Bullecourt, and other bloody fields) — but, on the contrary, to advance under the maximum possible protection of the maximum possible array of mechanical resources, in the form of guns, machine guns, tanks, mortars and aeroplanes; to advance with as little impediment as possible; to be relieved as far as possible of the obligation to fight their way forward; to march, resolutely, regardless of the din and tumult of battle, to the appointed goal; and there to hold and defend the territory gained; and to gather in the form of prisoners, guns and stores, the fruits of victory.
** Ch. 5
* This achievement is, above everything else, an illustration, which should become classic, of the maxim that in war the moral is to the material as three to one.
** Ch. 16
* "Feed your troops on victory," is a maxim which does not appear in any text-book, but it is nevertheless true.
** Ch. 17
* The nation that wishes to defend its land and its honour must spare no effort, refuse no sacrifice to make itself so formidable that no enemy will dare to assail it. A League of Nations may be an instrument for the preservation of peace, but an efficient Army is a far more potent one.
** Ch. 17
# John Minton (artist)

Francis John Minton (25 December 1917 – 20 January 1957) was an English painter, illustrator, stage designer and teacher

## Quotes

* We're all awash in a sea of blood, and the least we can do is wave to each other.
** this inspired the title of the Van der Graaf Generator album The Least We Can Do Is Wave to Each Other.
* Every living person has certain feelings about the world around him. It is these feelings, common to all men, which are the raw materials of the artist's inspiration. This he must 'translate', into the structure of an art form, whether music, poetry or painting. The problem of the painter is this 'translation'; that is, he has to create some arrangement of shape, line and colour which convey the idea or the emotion which moved him to paint this particular picture.
** "Seven Artists Tell why they Paint", Picture Post, 12 March 1949. p. 13

## About Minton

* No one mirrors his age clearer than the artist, for here is the living moment made concrete, the particular made general.

# Literary theory

Literary theory is the study of the nature of literature and of the methods for analyzing literature.

## Quotes

* Literary critics like Lionel Trilling ... demand that our novels illuminate the manners and morals of prevailing society. Professor Trilling is right, because otherwise what use are they for us? But he is wrong-headed, because he does not see that the burden of proof is not on the artist but on our society. If such convenient criticism of prevalent life does not get to be written, it is likely that the prevailing society is not inspiring enough; its humanity is not great enough, it does not have enough future, to be worth the novelist’s trouble.
** Paul Goodman, Growing up Absurd (1956), p. 214
* The intellectual origins of literary theory in Europe were, I think it is accurate to say, insurrectionary. The traditional university, the hegemony of determinism and positivism, the reification of ideological bourgeois “humanism,” the rigid barriers between academic specialties: it was powerful responses to all these that linked together such influential progenitors of today’s literary theorist as Saussure, Lukács, Bataille, Lévi-Strauss, Freud, Nietzsche, and Marx. Theory proposed itself as a synthesis overriding the petty fiefdoms within the world of intellectual production, and it was manifestly to be hoped as a result that all the domains of human activity could be seen, and lived, as a unity. ...
    Literary theory, whether of the Left or the Right, has turned its back on these things. This can be considered, I think, the triumph of the ethic of professionalism. But it is no accident that the emergence of so narrowly defined a philosophy of pure textuality and critical noninterference has coincided with the ascendancy of Reaganism.
   * Edward Said, The World, the Text, and the Critic (1983), pp. 3-4

# Literary modernism

Literary modernism, or modernist literature, has its origins in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, mainly in Europe and North America. Some philosophers, like Georg Lukacs, theorized that literary modernism had its origins in the philosophy of Walter Benjamin. Modernism is characterized by a self-conscious break with traditional styles of poetry and verse.

## Quotes

* Any writing, of course, requires some interpretation as part of our efforts to evaluate, refine, extend, or appreciate its achievement or to provide special background that readers outside the author’s culture or historical period may require. But certain authors – in literature, the twentieth-century modernists are among the best examples – present themselves as so immediately and intrinsically “difficult” as to require special interpretative efforts even for those well equipped to understand them.

## Quotes

* Folz est qui a escient Veut sor gravele semer; Et cil plus qui entrepent Volage femme a amer.On n'i peut raison trouver; Tost ame, et tost se repent, Et tost fet celui dolent Qui plus s' i cuide fier.
** Fool! who from choice can spend his hours Sowing the barren sand with flowers;— And yet more weak, more foolish you, Who seek a fickle fair to woo.No certain rule her course presents; Quickly she loves, as quick repents: Her smiles shall nought but grief confer On him who vainly trusts in her.

# Hugo Medrano

## Quotes

* As an Argentine artist I had to leave my country during the time that many of my artist friends were being “disappeared.” I travelled to Spain and spent my formative years studying and working with leading directors in Madrid. I have been faced with censorship and threats not only in my own country but actually with a play I produced here in DC early in our history that criticized the military dictatorship that was in power in Argentina in the late 1960s…I am just glad that I did not have to become a martyr and that I am able to produce work that helps raise social consciousness about war an oppressive regimes all over the world, and about the need to preserve memory so that we don’t repeat history’s devastating events.
** On how he related his personal background to the play ¡Ay, Carmela! (which started the 2011-2012 GALA Hispanic Theatre season) in “An Interview with GALA Hispanic Theatre’s Hugo Medrano” in MD Theatre Guide (2011 Oct 8)
* …This play is not only about memory, but also a shout for freedom and a testimony to the inhumanity of war anywhere and at any time. Many of our artists and audience members have lived through the horrors of the war in El Salvador, the dirty little war in Argentina, and the long Chilean dictatorship, so this play speaks to them personally.
** On how the play ¡Ay, Carmela! might affect anyone who has lived through warfare in “An Interview with GALA Hispanic Theatre’s Hugo Medrano” in MD Theatre Guide (2011 Oct 8)
* I am constantly recharged by the different artists I work with, by the new challenges we face, and by listening to my inner voice. My trip to the ocean every year gives me great peace, and now that I am a grandfather for the first time, I am thrilled and inspired every day that I see my granddaughter because I have great hope for the future generation.

# Kalhana

Kalhana (sometimes spelled Kalhan or Kalhan'a) (c. 12th century), a Kashmiri, was the author of Rajatarangini (River of Kings), an account of the history of Kashmir. He wrote the work in Sanskrit between 1148 and 1149.

## Quotes

* That noble-minded poet alone merits praise whose word, like the sentence of a judge, keeps free from love or hatred in recording the past.
** Quoted from Will Durant, Our Oriental Heritage
* ‘‘Trilochanapala causing floods of blood to pour in batttle resembled Shiva (frilochana) when sending forth the fire which burns the world at the end of the Kealpa. After fighting crores of armour-clad soldiers in the battle, this (prince), who was experienced in affairs, came forth singly from among the foes pressing (around him). When Trilochana (pala) had gone afar, the whole country was overshadowed by hosts of fierce chandalas, which (resembled clouds of) locusts.’’
** Kalhana’s Rajatarangini, edited by Stein. quoted from

## Quotes about Kalhana

* Only one Hindu writer seems to have grasped the function of the historian. Kalhana, author of the Rajatarangini, or "Stream of Kings," expressed himself as follows: "That noble-minded poet alone merits praise whose word, like the sentence of a judge, keeps free from love or hatred in recording the past." Winternitz calls him "the only great historian that India has produced."
** Will Durant, Our Oriental Heritage
* Professor D.P.Singhal asserts that, contrary to the general belief, Indians in ancient times did not neglect the important discipline of historiography. On the contrary, they were good writers of history. He states: “Ancient India did not produce a Thucydides, but there is considerable evidence to suggest that every important Hindu court maintained archives and geneologies of its rulers. And Kalhana’s Rajatarangini, written in twelfth century Kashmir, is a remarkable piece of historical literature. Despite his lapses into myths and legends, Kalhana had an unbiased approach to historical facts and history writing. He held that a true historian, while recounting the events of the past, must discard love (raga) and hatred (dvesha). Indeed, his well-developed concept of history and the technique of historical investigation have given rise to some speculation that there existed at the time a powerful tradition of historiography in which Kalhana must have received his training.”

# Kali

Kali (Sanskrit: काली), also known as Kālikā (Sanskrit: कालिका), is a Hindu goddess. Kali is one of the ten Mahavidyas, a list which combines Sakta and Buddhist goddesses.

## Quotes

* It is only a few religions which have had the courage to say without any reserve, like the Indian, that this enigmatic World-Power is one Deity, one Trinity, to lift up the image of the Force that acts in the world in the figure not only of the beneficent Durga, but of the terrible Kali in her blood-stained dance of destruction and to say, 'This too is the Mother; this also know to be God; this too, if thou hast the strength, adore.' And it is significant that the religion which has had this unflinching honesty and tremendous courage, has succeeded in creating a profound and widespread spirituality such as no other can parallel. For truth is the foundation of real spirituality and courage is its soul.

* Kali the Mother (excerpt)
The stars are blotted out,  The clouds are covering clouds, It is darkness vibrant, sonant.  In the roaring, whirling wind Are the souls of a million lunatics  Just loose from the prison-house, Wrenching trees by the roots,  Sweeping all from the path... The sea has joined the fray,  And swirls up mountain-waves, To reach the pitchy sky.  The flash of lurid light Reveals on every side  A thousand, thousand shades Of Death begrimed and black —

# Kalibangan

Kalibangān is a town located at 29.47°N 74.13°E﻿ / 29.47; 74.13 on the left or southern banks of the Ghaggar (Ghaggar-Hakra River) in Tehsil Pilibangān, between Suratgarh and Hanumangarh in Hanumangarh District, Rajasthan, India 205 km. from Bikaner. It is also identified as being established in the triangle of land at the confluence of Drishadvati and Sarasvati Rivers. The prehistoric and pre-Mauryan character of Indus Valley Civilisation was first identified by Luigi Tessitori at this site.

## Quotes

* Kalibangan . . . is strategically located at the confluence of the Sarasvatī and Drishadvatī Rivers and must have played a major role as a way station and monitor of the overland communications of the Harappan peoples.
** Gregory Possehl quoted in Danino, M. (2010). The lost river : on the trail of the Sarasvatī. Penguin Books India.
* The study offered 'the first stratigraphic evidence that a palaeochannel exists in the sub-surface alluvium in the Ghaggar valley. The fact that the major urban sites of Kalibangan and Kunal lie adjacent to the newly discovered subsurfacefluvial channel body ... suggests that there may be a spatial relationship between the Ghaggar-Hakrapalaeochannel and Harappan site distribution' (Sinha et al., 2013).

* Such a conclusion had been reached by archaeologists long ago, since Kalibangan, for instance, shows no evidence of independent water supply; unlike Mohenjo- daro, it had very few wells, and unlike Dholavira, no reservoirs, yet it was continually occupied for several centuries: for its water supply through the year, it must therefore have depended on the Sarasvati, on whose left bank it lay, with entries into its fortified enclosures facing the riverbed.
