" "Patriotic listeners to Radio Awala are further directed to discount all superstitious whispers that M'Rundu's magical powers caused units of the People's Army to disperse in panic, east of Fort Swaha. The truth of the matter is this: M'Rundu is hundreds of miles distant, at Haggat, and any claim that he can appear in two places simultaneously are grossly contrary to scientific teaching. Several sorcerers much more adept than M'Rundu belong to the Progressive party, and are pitting all their talents, for the sake of the people's democracy, against M'Rundu's obscene magic.

Additional quotes by Russell Kirk
A thorough survey of Randolph's reading defeats such an effort. The Virginian had, certainly, a lively interest in the writers of his day, but his admiration for the Romantics was strictly qualified, as his correspondence with Francis Walker Gilmer, Brockenbrough, Francis Scott Key, and Josiah Quincy shows.
Even the wisest of mankind cannot live by reason alone; pure arrogant reason, denying the claims of prejudice (which commonly are also the claims of conscience), leads to a wasteland of withered hopes and crying loneliness, empty of God and man: the wilderness in which Satan tempted Christ was not more dreadful than the arid expanse of intellectual vanity deprived of tradition and intuition, where modern man is tempted by his own pride.
