Famous quotes containing the words original and/or owners:

    All nationalisms are at heart deeply concerned with names: with the most immaterial and original human invention. Those who dismiss names as a detail have never been displaced; but the peoples on the peripheries are always being displaced. That is why they insist upon their continuity—their links with their dead and the unborn.
    John Berger (b. 1926)

    O, these naughty times
    Puts bars between the owners and their rights!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
