“What after all, is a halo? It's only one more thing to keep clean.”
Christopher Fry, The Lady's Not for Burning

“One day I shall burst my bud of calm and blossom into hysteria.”
Christopher Fry

“I've never seen a world
So festering with damnation. I have left
Rings of beer on every alehouse table
From the salt sea-coast across half a dozen counties,
But each time I thought I was on the way
To a faintly festive hiccup
The sight of the damned world sobered me up again.”
Christopher Fry
