Famous quotes containing the words prominent, party and/or leaders:

    The vain man does not wish so much to be prominent as to feel himself prominent; he therefore disdains none of the expedients for self-deception and self-outwitting. It is not the opinion of others that he sets his heart on, but his opinion of their opinion.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Death is hacking away at my address book and party lists.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    No matter how vast, how total, the failure of man here on earth, the work of man will be resumed elsewhere. War leaders talk of resuming operations on this front and that, but man’s front embraces the whole universe.
    Henry Miller (1891–1980)
