Quote of the Day (Norman Mailer, on ‘Two Kinds of Brave Men’)


“There are two kinds of brave men: those who are brave by the grace of nature and those who are brave by an act of will.”—American novelist-essayist Norman Mailer (1923-2007), “Punching Papa” (review of Morley Callaghan’s That Summer in Paris), originally printed in The New York Review of Books, later collected in Cannibals and Christians (1966)
