	E. M. Forster
		Forster famously wrote in his essay "What I Believe" that "if I had to choose between betraying my country and betraying my friend I hope I should have the guts to betray my country." When Forster first published these comments, in 1938, they were controversial because they placed human relations over nationalism, friendship over patriotism.
		Forster here suggests that the homosexual is sometimes forced to choose between his "illegal" sexual relationships and the country that condemns them.
		Forster was born on 1 January 1879 in London, to parents Edward Morgan Llewellyn Forster and Alice Clara ("Lily") Whichelo.

	Amazon.com: A Passage to India: Books: E.M. Forster (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Arguably Forster's greatest novel, A Passage to India limns a troubling portrait of colonialism at its worst, and is remarkable for the complexity of its characters.
		When Forster closes with Aziz defiantly proclaiming that he is now staunchly in the camp of those who oppose social reconciliation, there is a tendency to overlook what undercuts what otherwise might be Forster's surface sadness at his view that matters between England and India are irreparably breached.
		Forster is so relentlessly insistent in his belief that this gap is permanent that the reader begins to wonder whether Forster's reasons lie more with subliminal agreement with the "white man's burden" rather than any objective assessment of undeniable fact.
