Famous quotes containing the word key:
“All meanings, we know, depend on the key of interpretation.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
“The key word in my plays is “perhaps.””
—Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
“The key to the age may be this, or that, or the other, as the young orators describe; the key to all ages is—Imbecility: imbecility in the vast majority of men, at all times, and even in heroes, in all but certain eminent moments: victims of gravity, customs and fear. This gives force to the strong,—that the multitude have no habit of self-reliance or original action.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
