Lewis Lapham

Famous quotes containing the words lewis and/or lapham:

    So we must say Goodbye, my darling,
    And go, as lovers go, for ever;
    Tonight remains, to pack and fix on labels
    And make an end of lying down together.
    —Alun Lewis (1915–1944)

    Seeing is believing, and if an American success is to count for anything in the world it must be clothed in the raiment of property. As often as not it isn’t the money itself that means anything; it is the use of money as the currency of the soul.
    —Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
