Famous quotes containing the words isaiah and/or literature:

    Let us eat and drink; for to morrow we shall die.
    —Bible: Hebrew Isaiah 22:13.

    Almost the same words are found in 1 Corinthians 15:32.

    Our leading men are not of much account and never have been, but the average of the people is immense, beyond all history. Sometimes I think in all departments, literature and art included, that will be the way our superiority will exhibit itself. We will not have great individuals or great leaders, but a great average bulk, unprecedentedly great.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
