Famous quotes containing the words david and/or anderson:

    The heroes and discoverers have found true more than was previously believed, only when they were expecting and dreaming of something more than their contemporaries dreamed of, or even themselves discovered, that is, when they were in a frame of mind fitted to behold the truth. Referred to the world’s standard, they are always insane. Even savages have indirectly surmised as much.
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    It would be ... better to be judged by one’s superiors than by one’s peers. ...In a trial before his superiors, any criminal would stand a chance of justice.
    —Margaret Anderson (1886–1973)
