Literary Quote I Like

“It used to be the fashion,” I said, “to ridicule the Roman Church for its confessionals, but the world seems to be coming back to the practice. It’s a need of the race, I fear, and people will seek it -- whether in psychoanalysis or in the Oxford Group. The Catholics may be wiser than a good materialistic agnostic like myself cares to admit.”
--Rufus Bottomley in Anthony Boucher's The Case of the Baker Street Irregulars
