MAXWELL ANDERSON, Winterset

This thing that men call justice, this blind snake that strikes men down in the dark, mindless with fury, keep your hand back from it, pass by in silence.
MAXWELL ANDERSON, Winterset
- The years are long, and full of sharp, wearing days
- That wear out what we are and what we have been
- And change us into people we do not know,
- Living among strangers.
MAXWELL ANDERSON, Elizabeth the Queen

MAXWELL ANDERSON, High Tor
