Famous quotes containing the words glasgow and/or museums:
“When this immediate evil power has been defeated, we shall not yet have won the long battle with the elemental barbarities. Another Hitler, it may be an invisible adversary, will attempt, again, and yet again, to destroy our frail civilization. Is it true, I wonder, that the only way to escape a war is to be in it? When one is a part of an actuality does the imagination find a release?”
—Ellen Glasgow (18731945)
“In museums and palaces we are alternate radicals and conservatives.”
—Henry James (18431816)
