“What I want, I think, is the sentimental, but the sentimental reached by no easy beaten track”
E.M. Forster (1879–1970) English novelist
Letter 60, to Robert Trevelyan, 28 October 1905
Selected Letters (1983-1985)
Context: You can gather however that I know I am not a real artist, and at the same time am fearfully serious over my work and willing to sweat at atmosphere if it helps me wo what I want. What I want, I think, is the sentimental, but the sentimental reached by no easy beaten track—I cannot explain myself properly, for you must remember (I forget it myself) that though 'clever' I have a small and cloudy brain, and cannot clear it by talking or reading philosophy.
Julie Anne Peters (1952) American writer

Context: By the gods I do not want the Galileans to be killed or beaten unjustly nor to suffer any other ill. I do, however, state that the god-fearing (theosebeis) should be preferred to them … honour should go to the gods and to the men and cities that worship them.
