Title a Quotation?

[edit]

Certainly sounds like a quote - but from where? Stephen Fry did a spoof review of an "Ivory-Merchant" film, allegedly based on an E M Forster novel of the same title, in 1988, as part of the first episode of "Saturday Night Fry" on BBC Radio 4. Is P D James a Stephen Fry fan? Probably, but is that where she got the title? Moletrouser (talk) 20:48, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The quotation appears in the text of the novel. It seems to be from the Book of Common Prayer: http://justus.anglican.org/resources/bcp/1789Selections/MP&EP.htm — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lingvano (talkcontribs) 13:59, 28 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
