Aunt Dimity and the Buried Treasure Quotes

“said doubtfully. Among many other things. My conversations with Badger inspired me to visit art galleries and museums, to attend plays and concerts, to broaden my cultural horizons. The war had shown me man’s capacity for destruction. Badger reminded me of man’s capacity to create. When I studied a painting or listened to a symphony or stood beneath St. Paul’s magnificent dome, I felt a renewed sense of hope for the future. Though much had been destroyed, much remained, and much would be restored. Civilization would endure.”
― Nancy Atherton, Aunt Dimity and the Buried Treasure
