Germans Launched

Famous quotes containing the words germans and/or launched:

“The Germans are called brutal, the Spanish cruel, the Americans superficial, and so on; but we are perfide Albion, the island of hypocrites, the people who have built up an Empire with a Bible in one hand, a pistol in the other, and financial concessions in both pockets. Is the charge true? I think it is.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)

“A book is like a child: it is easier to bring it into the world than to control it when it is launched there.”
