Famous quotes containing the word age:
“Captivating the spirit of the age is a matter of great talent; being swept away by it characterizes an average mind. The two are as different from one another as activity and passivity.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
“Apart from letters, it is the vulgar custom of the moment to deride the thinkers of the Victorian and Edwardian eras; yet there has not been, in all history, another age ... when so much sheer mental energy was directed toward creating a fairer social order.”
—Ellen Glasgow (1873–1945)
“Because this age and the next age

If Folly link with Elegance
No man knows which is which....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
