Famous quotes containing the words early and/or archaic:
“It is so very late that we
May call it early by and by. Good night.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Almost always tradition is nothing but a record and a machine-made imitation of the habits that our ancestors created. The average conservative is a slave to the most incidental and trivial part of his forefathers’ glory—to the archaic formula which happened to express their genius or the eighteenth-century contrivance by which for a time it was served.”
—Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)
