Famous quotes containing the words world, cross and/or country:
“That the world is not the embodiment of an eternal rationality can be conclusively proved by the fact that the piece of the world that we know—I mean our human reason—is not so very rational. And if it is not eternally and completely wise and rational, then the rest of the world will not be either; here the conclusion a minori ad majus, a parte ad totum applies, and does so with decisive force.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“To be where little cable cars climb halfway to the stars.”
—Douglass Cross (b. 1920)
“The country is not paradise, and can show the vices that grieve a good man everywhere. But there is room in it, and leisure.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)
