Famous quotes containing the words ellis, cancer and/or center:

    To be a leader of men one must turn one’s back on men.
    —Havelock Ellis (1859–1939)

    I’m beginning to believe that Killer Illiteracy ought to rank near heart disease and cancer as one of the leading causes of death among Americans. What you don’t know can indeed hurt you, and so those who can neither read nor write lead miserable lives, like Richard Wright’s character, Bigger Thomas, born dead with no past or future.
    Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)

    I am the center of the world, but the control panel seems to be somewhere else.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
