HEAVEN/HELL
Arthur J. Schlesinger, Jr. reminisced about Edward F. Prichard, Jr., politician, some- time crook, interesting character from Kentucky: “He had a diverting fancy about Judgment Day. When the last trumpet sounded, he would say, the Lord isn’t going to send people to heaven or to hell, ‘He’s going to take away their inhibitions, and everybody’s going to go where he belongs.'” From The New York Review of Books, as quoted in Context, July 15, 1985.
