Famous quotes containing the words durant and/or brooks:

    Civilization is a stream with banks. The stream is sometimes filled with blood from people killing, stealing, shouting and doing the things historians usually record, while on the banks, unnoticed, people build homes, make love, raise children, sing songs, write poetry and even whittle statues. The story of civilization is the story of what happened on the banks. Historians are pessimists because they ignore the banks for the river.
    —Will Durant (1885–1981)

    I loved. And a man will guard when he loves.
    Their white-gowned democracy was my fair lady.
    With her knife lying cold, straight, in the softness of her sweet-flowing sleeve.
    —Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
