Consensus

     Consensus

Wm. F. Buckley to Whittaker Chambers:

“It has long been the irrevocable consensus in my numerous family, that your courage, your skills, and your faith are the brightest beacon of the free world.  I am sure thousands, if not millions of people agree with us, and I hope that a knowledge of this leavens the aching loneliness so evidenced in all your writings.”

Chambers to his wife Esther:

“He was born, not made, and not many like that are born in any time.”
