Famous quotes containing the words francis and/or grant:

    I hardly said a word to my wife until I said ‘yes’ to divorce.
    John Milius, U.S. screenwriter, Francis Ford Coppola (b. 1939)

    The rebel, unlike the revolutionary, does not attempt to undermine the social order as a whole. The rebel attacks the tyrant; the revolutionary attacks tyranny. I grant that there are rebels who regard all governments as tyrannical; nonetheless, it is abuses that they condemn, not power itself. Revolutionaries, on the other hand, are convinced that the evil does not lie in the excesses of the constituted order but in order itself. The difference, it seems to me, is considerable.
    Octavio Paz (b. 1914)
