“The earth laughs in flowers.”
– Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Gore Vidal said, ‘I think of myself as a conservative. My family helped start [this country] … and we’ve been in political life since the 1690s, and I have a very possessive sense about this country.’

In a September 30, 2009, interview with The Times of London, Vidal said that there soon would be a dictatorship in the United States.

In the United States, Gore Vidal is often considered an essayist rather than a novelist. Even the occasionally hostile literary critic, such as Martin Amis, admitted that ‘Essays are what he is good at … [Vidal] is learned, funny, and exceptionally clear-sighted. Even his blind spots are illuminating.'”
