Ford Madox Ford

He is humanist man, confronted after two thousand five hundred years with the beginning of the end of humanist civilization in the first major explosion, the First World War, of mass civilization, inchoate and irresponsible, ridden with the frustration and vindictiveness that come with depersonalization and the loss of all real life goals. --Kenneth Rexroth, Parade’s End, More Classics Revisited (1989)
