Famous quotes containing the words henry and/or wharton:

    Logical consequences are the scarecrows of fools and the beacons of wise men.
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    My first few weeks in America are always miserable, because the tastes I am cursed with are all of a kind that cannot be gratified here, & I am not enough in sympathy with our “gros public” to make up for the lack on the aesthetic side. One’s friends are delightful; but we are none of us Americans, we don’t think or feel as the Americans do, we are the wretched exotics produced in a European glass-house, the most déplacé & useless class on earth!
    —Edith Wharton (1862–1937)
