...still difficult to reconcile his solid musical achievement and the indefinable magic of his conducting with the wild iconoclasm of his public utterances, the explanation may lie in the fact that he is a man little compelled either by circumstance or temperament to dwell on the tragic issues of life. It is perhaps therefore only natural that his ebullient energies should seek clamant relief in attacking what he calls "this age of high comedy," in spectacularly pricking that "whole boil and bubble of insanity" which he says he sees around him and which so exasperates him that he is often...

As the Ohio Senator campaigns, 26 strategically-placed billboards will call attention to Ike's non-campaigning status: "We're for Taft because we know what he stands...
...Whither shall I go from thy spirit? Or whither shall I flee from thy presence? If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there; if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. If I take the wings of the morning and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me." -Psalms...
