Famous quotes containing the words authentic and/or villages:

    “In a secular age, an authentic miracle must purport to be a hoax, in order to gain credit in the world.”
    —Angela Carter (1940–1992)

    “But I go with my friend to the shore of our little river, and with one stroke of the paddle, I leave the village politics and personalities, yes, and the world of villages and personalities behind, and pass into a delicate realm of sunset and moonlight, too bright almost for spotted man to enter without novitiate and probation.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
