Additional quotes by Ford Madox Ford

"هؤلاء نساء فلاندرز
ينتظرن الضّائعين،
ينتظرنَ الضّائعين الذين أبداً لنْ يُغادروا الميناء،
ينتظرن الضّائعين الّذين أبداً لن يجيء بهم القطار
إلى أحضان هؤلاء النّسوة، ذوات الوجوه الميتة،
ينتظرن الضّائعين الّذين يرقدون موتى في الخندق والحاجز والطّين في ظلام الليل.
هذه محطّة تشارنغ كروس. السّاعة جاوزت الواحدة.
ثمّة ضوء ضئيل
ثمّة ألم عظيم".
