Sir William Gerald Golding (1911–1993) was a Nobel Prize-winning writer best known for his 1954 novel Lord of the Flies, about a group of British schoolboys who become marooned on an isolated island after a plane crash and attempt to govern themselves, with disastrous results.

“I think women are foolish to pretend they are equal to men, they are far superior and always have been.”

― William Golding, Lord of the Flies
